I don't think I could speak on his behalf or know what he was facing when it was recognized that he had any psychological issues. What I have heard from peers, though, was that folks or soldiers who have gone to sick parade with suicidal ideations have not been treated immediately. Despite going in and saying that this is how they're feeling, they still had to wait months before they were referred to the appropriate professional. Within their place of work, within their units, they are extremely reluctant to discuss it or to raise it with their chain of command. There is a very strong stigma that exists.
