What are the current opinions about behavioral health in the Army? If you were to seek help, would it be on or off post? https://www.rallypoint.com/answers/what-are-the-current-opinions-about-behavioral-health-in-the-army-if-you-were-to-seek-help-would-it-be-on-or-off-post <div class="images-v2-count-0"></div>This appears to be an ongoing "hot" topic. With a wide variety of opinions and experiences that seem to be at least partly related to location, command climate, and availability of services. I'd love to hear about perceptions, experiences, and critiques. Mon, 28 Jul 2014 18:16:21 -0400 What are the current opinions about behavioral health in the Army?

This being said the problem is the lack of training/understanding with most of them regarding military culture. Specifically how not all behaviors are pathological and how weak diagnostics can ruin a career or at least make it very problematic for a soldier. Some of the Brigade assets are under immense pressure to "preserve the fighting force" or "get rid of this one" by commands.
