We the People of the United States of America Petition The United States Congress to construct a PTSD (Post Traumatic Stress Disorder) Memorial Wall We ask that every service man and woman that served our country and as a result of that service came back diagnosed with PTSD and died be memorialized. We do not want their service to this country be forgotten. The loss of our Veteran’s lives once they are released from their service is now epidemic. We need to bring light to these 4 letters. The effects of PTSD is now taking more lives here at home then lives lost on the battle field. It is their experiences on the battle field and the images that are forever seared in their minds that have forever changed these men and woman. It is their selfless acts at war time that have moved their own hand to end their own suffering. We need to bring Awareness to PTSD and not let it be silenced. There is no shame in PTSD and its existence must be brought to the forefront. We ask that you construct these walls and give these men and woman the Honor & Respect they so deserve.

We lose an average of twenty two American Warriors to PTSD every day. They served, they brought the war home with them, they lost their final battle.

not only a wall to memorialize these service members but also treatment to aid them in this disorder. it is horrible that they have to end their lives due to this suffering. help them as they have given their all to help us.

My cousin served proudly and died from his Hidden Wounds. Please honor all our service men and women who served proudly, honorably and died after they returned home!

I wish my son to be remembered in Honor of what he and our family gave for this "OUR" country, he gave and and returned home wounded on the inside both physical and mentally. we lost him to suicide, why did that happen? Rest in Peace my son.

My Husband suffered for so many years with PTSD. PTSD took over his health, his ability to sleep a night through and bouts of drinking, and suicidal. Through it all we remained married and in Love until the day he died. Rest in Peace see you in eternity.

I have had PTSD since childhood. fortunately with medication, meditation and therapy, I am able to live with it.
