For the past decade, suicidal behavior in military and veteran populations has been a constant feature in the news and in the media, with suicide rates among active duty American military personnel reaching their highest level in almost three decades. Handbook of Military and Veteran Suicide reviews the most advanced scientific understanding of the phenomenon of active duty and veteran suicide, while providing a useful, hands-on clinical guide for those working with this population. This comprehensive Handbook covers all relevant topics and current research in suicide in military and veteran populations, including links between suicide and PTSD, the stigma of mental health treatment in the military, screening for firearms access in military and veteran populations, "subintentioned" suicide (e.g. reckless driving and other such "accidental" deaths), women in combat, and working with families. Chapters also cover suicide risk assessment, ethical issues in treating suicidal patients, evidence-based treatments for PTSD, traumatic brain injury, and managing suicide in older veterans. Significant issues that may arise in assessing and treating military and veteran populations who are at risk for suicide are presented and discussed with evidence-based and practical recommendations. This Handbook will benefit researchers, policy makers, and clinicians who work with active duty military and veteran populations.

Veteran Suicide: A Public Health Imperative educates readers on the critical issue of veteran suicide that has become a national imperative. Eighteen veterans kill themselves daily. An average of one active-duty GI commits suicide every 1.1 days. More GIs deployed to Iraq and Afghanistan will die from suicide than from combat. These troubling facts are undeniable. Published with assistance from the Veterans Administration, this collection of papers offers peer reviewed research from the leading experts from public health, clinical, and scientific communities. Some of the topics include: * Surveillance of Suicide and Suicide Attempts Among Veterans * Suicide Prevention for Veterans and Active Duty Personnel * Preventing Suicide by Preventing Lethal Injury * Estimating the Risk of Suicide Among US Veterans: * Suicide Prevention Is a Winnable Battle * Facilitating Treatment Engagement During High-Risk Transition Periods "The research represented by the collection of manuscripts included in this volume is an important step towards addressing the national problem of suicide and a reminder that even one death by suicide is too many." Janet Kemp, RN, Ph.D. -- VA National Mental Health Program Director, Suicide Prevention and Community Engagement

Blending illustrative narratives from veterans with cutting-edge research, this book provides a model for a needed shift from treatment post-trauma to psychological training pre-trauma to prevent deep depression and resulting suicides. As suicides among members of the U.S. military and veterans continue at a rate higher than in the general population—nearly 20 each day—and their calls for help become louder, with three veterans waiting for treatment outside Veterans Administration hospitals in 2019 committing suicide, authors and former U.S. Marines Kate Hendricks Thomas and Sarah Plummer Taylor present a call for a new approach to help halt the needless deaths. Thomas, now a researcher and assistant professor of public health, and Plummer Taylor, now a social worker and adjunct professor, detail a plan to establish preventative training for mental fitness that will help psychologically "vaccinate" service members against depression and PTSD, the most common precursors to suicidal thoughts. Thomas and Plummer Taylor detail their mental fitness training program to shift from post-trauma treatment to pre-trauma prevention. Each topic addressed is illustrated with stories from veterans. Part of the solution, Thomas and Plummer Taylor explain, is to present prevention as something for all service members and as a positive, strength-building, challenging activity for champions, as opposed to a post-trauma treatment only for "weak and broken" warriors.

The statistics about veteran suicide have changed little over the years, hovering most consistently at twenty suicides a day. Most emphasis has been placed on increasing the availability of mental health services for returning soldiers, yet theaters of war present a myriad of factors affecting human health from exposures to toxic elements, extreme environments, and a lack of proper nutrition, not to mention the emotional experiences that all together create a cascade of individualized chemical messenger responses to unrelenting stressors. The War Within informs soldiers, veterans, family members, and caretakers how to first understand what happens to the body under such stressors in theaters of war and how this affects the brain. Once one understands what has happened to the physical body, then appropriate decisions and practices can be undertaken to restore the physical reserves of our warriors, ultimately reversing the heartbreaking suicidal trend that we recognize is currently taking place. The War Within presents a five-part, well-researched program that can serve as a vital complement to the important mental health programs presently being provided for our soldiers and veterans. This program is easy to implement into daily routines, and it enables restoration of optimal brain function, thus reducing the incidence of depression, hopelessness, fatigue, and suicidal ideation.
