A statement on a webpage for the National Center for PTSD, which is maintained on the VA website, argues that psychiatric service dogs might hamper recovery by rendering veterans unable to function without a dog at their side.
"For example, if the dog keeps strangers from coming too close, the owner will not have a chance to learn that they can handle this situation without the dog. Becoming dependent on a dog can get in the way of the recovery process for PTSD," the statement reads.
Ayfkm? I mean, fine. Do science, as much as can ever be done with mental and emotional issues. But would you ever blithely say medications might hamper recovery by rendering veterans unable to function without medications? Or how about 'for example, if the drug keeps symptoms from becoming disabling, the patient will not have a chance to learn that they can handle this situation without the drug. Becoming dependent on a drug can get in the way of the recovery process for PTSD.'? What a pile of horse manure.
