"Everything has its pros and cons. From a practical standpoint, the military encourages open discussions about any issue. However, this approach can sometimes mean that deeper, personal matters are not fully addressed. People may downplay their true concerns and hesitate to share issues that deeply affect them. Despite this, we have well-established psychosocial services, including trained counselors and psychologists. The uptake of these services has been encouraging, with many soldiers actively seeking help. Today, almost every division has a psychologist. Initially, psychologists were brought in to address HIV-related issues, but their roles have since expanded to cover a broad range of psychosocial concerns, offering holistic and multidisciplinary support."
