New Study On 'Moral Injury' Conducted By San Diego VA

Post-traumatic stress disorder (PTSD) has become widely known in recent years and is often associated with soldiers.

But a condition called "moral injury" is now being studied as well by the U.S. Department of Veterans Affairs in San Diego and the National Center for PTSD. Though there is some overlap between the two, potential treatments could be dramatically different.

To explain more, Dr. Sonya Norman, director of the PTSD Consultation Program at the National Center for PTSD, came on The Show.

EDITOR'S NOTE: This story has been modified to correct the title of Dr. Sonya Norman.

Steve Goldstein was a host at KJZZ from 1997 to 2022.
