Many veterans first develop PTSD years after their traumatic experience, while others might find their existing PTSD gets worse as they age. There are a number of reasons for this happening.

The interaction between physical and mental health can also lead to PTSD getting worse with age. It is important to seek treatment before PTSD gets worse.
