The Facts Do Not Lie. Why Military Mental Health Has Never Worked. Veterans and Researchers Mark Russell and Charles Figley.

Dee Tox engages in a dialogue with two esteemed guests, Dr. Mark Russell and Dr. Charles Figley., both Veterans and clinical psychologists. They bring an unparalleled depth of experience and insight to the conversation about military mental health, trauma, and the systemic issues that perpetuate a cycle of neglect within the armed forces.

Together, they've penned "Psychiatric Casualties," a book that is both a historical chronicle and a clarion call for change. It's a meticulous dissection of the military's recurring missteps in managing war stress issues, backed by a staggering amount of research and evidence. This episode not only digs into the personal narratives of these two warriors but also spotlights the vital message of their collaborative work: the urgent need for genuine care and systemic reform in military mental health.
