Introduction to the VetChange app for PTSD and problem drinking

VetChange is a free mobile application for Veterans and Service members who have posttraumatic stress disorder, or PTSD, and are interested in learning to manage problem drinking. It was created by a team at the National Center for PTSD, Department of Veterans Affairs. This app provides users with education about healthy drinking guidelines, a self-assessment and daily log to track drinking habits and set personal goals, tips to manage the urge to drink, tools based on symptoms of PTSD the user may be experiencing, and opportunities to find support. This app can be used by people who are in treatment as well as those who are not. VetChange is not intended to replace treatment with a provider. #VetChange #PTSD #Veterans
