It's World Mental Health Day

For many veterans, the battles don’t end when they leave the forces. Trauma, PTSD, anxiety and depression can continue to affect everyday life

At Stand Easy Military Support, we believe every veteran deserves support, understanding and the chance to feel better

You don’t have to talk about what you’ve been through to access our support

Today, let’s remind our Armed Forces community that mental health matters, asking for help is a strength, and no one has to face their struggles alone

As the season changes, the triggers can too

For military veterans living with PTSD, this time of year can introduce unique and difficult challenges

The changing environment can unexpectedly trigger
trauma responses

• Fallen leaves: The dry crunch underfoot can mimic the sound of movement or conceal hazards, driving the mind back into hypervigilance
• Sudden noises: Halloween fireworks, backfiring engines, and autumn storms can easily sound like gunfire or explosions
• Shorter days: Less sunlight can impact mood, worsen depression, and intensify the isolation that often accompanies PTSD

If you are a veteran struggling with the season shift, please know you are not alone. Reach out to someone you trust or connect with dedicated support like us

At Stand Easy, we don’t start with trauma. We start with relief

Before the story is told, before the pain is named, we offer calm, connection, and care. Because healing doesn’t begin with interrogation; it begins with safety

We help veterans find their footing first. And from that place of steadiness, the past can be faced with dignity, not fear

If you or someone you care about is searching for a space like this, you are welcome here.

Big thank you to The Health Lottery, we appreciate it greatly

This summer, Stand Easy were awarded a £1,000 Community Choice grant by The Health Lottery Foundation among nine other organisations also based in Norfolk.

This funding will allow to be expanded to more veterans living with the effects of PTSD and trauma. It will be used to fund acupuncture treatments and holistic wellbeing programmes, that offer practical, non-invasive support that helps improve mental health, reduce stress, and restored hope to those who have served our country.

Thanks to players of The Health Lottery, organisations like Stand Easy Charity can continue to provide treatment and support for those who need it.

At Stand Easy Military Support, we believe no veteran should face the weight of PTSD alone. That’s why we’re offering free acupuncture sessions, no diagnosis, no waiting list, and no talking required, just a place designed for relief, renewal, and support.

Acupuncture can help ease stress, improve sleep, and bring moments of calm. If you or someone you know has served and could use this support, we’re here with open arms.

Heatwave Reminder: Taking SSRIs or SNRIs? Stay Cool and Stay Safe

If you take antidepressants such as SSRIs or SNRIs, hot weather can affect you differently. These medications may impact how your body regulates temperature and sweating, which can increase the risk of overheating and dehydration during a heatwave

Drink water regularly throughout the day
Stay in the shade or indoors during the hottest hours (11am–3pm)
Wear loose, lightweight clothing
Use cool showers, damp cloths, or fans to help regulate body temperature

Seek medical advice if you experience symptoms such as dizziness, confusion, severe headache, rapid heartbeat, or signs of heat exhaustion

Never stop taking prescribed medication without speaking to your healthcare professional

Veterans living with PTSD, anxiety or depression may be particularly affected by poor sleep, increased stress and heat-related fatigue during periods of hot weather. If you're struggling, take extra care, stay hydrated, and reach out if needed

Stay cool. Stay safe and look after one another
