Army Alaska has waged a new battle, one designed to protect the mental health of soldiers who may want to harm themselves.
“It’s the 18-26 year old male. We see a lot of that sort of similar age and gender for our suicides,” Eifler said.“We see a lot of the suicides are in their first year here,” Eifler said. “But not necessarily initial-term soldiers.”
“A lot of the pain that we’re dealing with is mental frustration pain. Not necessarily physical pain,” Eifler said. “But the frustrations, and the coping skills is the pain, or the pain of depression.”“Some people are very resistant to reach out for help. Maybe they’re embarrassed. Maybe they’re ashamed,” Eifler said.“100% of our soldiers will get a wellness check from Behavioral Health, or the Military Family Life Counselor,” Eifler said.
