Topic > Reintegration Phase of Military Life - 707

This difficulty functioning in stressful situations can increase the difficulty of reintegrating after a deployment. Psychological trauma could lead to low frustration tolerance, poor anger management, difficulties coping and self-regulating, and hypervigilance. Because of this, service members may have increased problems with interpersonal interactions with their families. Additionally, a recent study examining recently returned veterans found that they had more physical symptoms, greater symptom severity, lower ratings of overall health, more sick visits, and more missed work days than their civilian counterparts (Hoge and colleagues).,
