Petition Should the m.o.d be more supportive of soldiers who are at risk of sucide even after they leave the forces.

More details

After watching the bbc documentry i am utterly shocked the the m.o.d do nothing for the service men and women who leave the forces due to ptsd.
I have created this petition to hopefully get the ministry of defence to do more for our serving and non serving troops.
At least do a 6month to 12month course to help them get back into the workings of everyday life, thus preventing the rate of suicide.

A qoute from the documtry was "the men and women are taught to become emotionless, they have it drilled into there heads"

So after leaving the force it makes it harder to adapt to normal life.
