The First World War brought a greater scientific understanding of the psychological effect of war. Just how bad though is the problem of psychological damage to people who’ve been in the military and what can be done to address this? With Northern Ireland reportedly having the world’s highest recorded rate of Post Traumatic Stress Disorder (PTSD), what is the effect on local communities?
