Anxiety and PTSD doesn't always come from combat. The two can exist together and have two entirely different origins. It sounds like he could have had anxiety and they may have been starting medication treatment. He came there they say in February? If a doctor wrote a script for an AD it takes about a month for them to build up in the blood stream give or take a week or so. Protocol drugs for anxiety isn't antianxiety medications like Valium, Xanax, etc. Protocol medications now are antidepressants. Most doctors are scared witless because of the government and media witch hunts to protect Hollywood recreational user from themselves to write a script for Valium or Xanax.
If anxiety stems from a chemical imbalance where Serotonin uptake needs enhanced then antidepressants do wonders. The same with Phobic anxiety. If anxiety is a secondary condition cause by a neurological condition such as sensory processing issues including Inner Ear etc then antidepressants can push the patient over the edge because it causes the Serotonin in the stomach to migrate to the brain thus producing psychotic behavior including hallucination and agitation.

I’m an RN and am not stupid. My comment was for those who have said that he had a combat related injury and that the military ignores those who need help.
