My best friend spent 4 years between Iraq and Afghanistan. He came back a very different person. He is always silent unless he is drinking. He will never ask or seek help and would deny having any forms of PTSD. The only time he's ever spoken about the terrible things he's seen at war was a couple times while drinking. One night he completely broke down at the bar, he left with a mutual friend and later crashed into a light pole. The mutual friend claims it was on purpose. I feel like he is suffering on the inside. I'm lost on what I can do for him. Do you have any tips on how to approach this?
