More than one-third of veterans reported that they had a difficult transition to civilian life. And those who reported having experienced symptoms consistent with a mental disorder between 2002 and 2018 were more likely to experience difficulty transitioning to civilian life.
In a recent survey self diagnosed rates of PTSD in veterans has risen from 2% in 2002 up to nearly 20% in 2019.
Military personnel were significantly more likely than civilians to have perceived stigma towards their mental health. However, military personnel were also significantly more likely than civilians to have sought care.
**If you are a veteran in need of immediate assistance for suicidal thoughts, please call or text the Crisis Centre at 988.**

TMS treatment from Brainstim will help you get back to being the person you know you are.
TMS uses magnetic pulses to stimulate and re-function your brain. No daily medications or their bothersome long-term side effects.
Deep Transcranial Magnetic Stimulation (TMS) involves a series of short magnetic pulses directed to the brain to stimulate nerve cells. The magnetic pulses stimulate area neurons and change the functioning of the brain circuits involved.
Sessions are quick and scheduled around your daily life to help ease your anxieties.
The majority of our patients see a 50-60% decrease in symptoms and have little to no downtime post-treatment, helping them to continue on with their daily lives.
TMS is an evidence-based treatment that is Health Canada and FDA approved for treatment-resistant depression and other mood disorders.
The Brainsway Deep Transcranial Magnetic Stimulation (dTMS) represents a significant advancement in treating depression and anxiety, offering deeper and wider brain stimulation compared to traditional rTMS. Its unique H-Coil design enables more intense magnetic pulses to target deeper neural structures effectively.
dTMS, approved by the FDA, uses magnetic fields to activate neural networks in the brain to improve symptoms of mental health and addiction conditions, including:
