This chapter finds that the rate of war-related PTSD declined by about half in the years between the NVVRS and the Longitudinal Study. This furthered the previously reported decline of PTSD by almost half from its initial onset before the NVVRS was conducted. The chapter reports that most Vietnam veterans found value in their war experience, but they also put the war behind them after homecoming, suggesting successful transitions to civilian life. However, while readjustment to life after leaving Vietnam was satisfying and productive for most veterans, a minority believed that their wartime experiences still had a major negative effect on their current lives. Moreover, at the time of the Longitudinal Study, a small group of veterans (4%) suffered from current PTSD, and over three-quarters who had experienced PTSD onsets continued to experience one or more PTSD symptoms.

Abstract. Background: There has been no systematic work on the short- or long-term impact of the installation of crisis phones on suicides from bridges. The present study addresses this issue. Method: Data refer to 219 suicides from 1954 through 2013 on the Skyway Bridge in St. Petersburg, Florida. Six crisis phones with signs were installed in July 1999. Results: In the first decade after installation, the phones were used by 27 suicidal persons and credited with preventing 26 or 2.6 suicides a year. However, the net suicide count increased from 48 in the 13 years before installation of phones to 106 the following 13 years or by 4.5 additional suicides/year (t =3.512, p < .001). Conclusion: Although the phones prevented some suicides, there was a net increase after installation. The findings are interpreted with reference to suggestion/contagion effects including the emergence of a controversial bridge suicide blog.
