I am a patient at the V A Hospital here in Mass. Has he mentioned these concerns to his doctor? Sometimes there are alternatives. Don't take offense but, has he had an addiction problem? I self medicated for years with alcohol. Also, not sure of his age but, he might want to look into PTSD. So many of these things can mask themselves. Welcome, and I'll check your response later.
