SANTA FE - April 28, 2010 will be designed as "Posttraumatic Stress Disorder Awareness Day" in New Mexico under a memorial sponsored by Rep. Nathan Cote, D-Las Cruces and passed by the Legislature.

"April 28th provides veterans, health-care providers and others to prepare awareness projects and publicity in regards to PTSD," Cote said. "Our population suffering from PTSD continues to grow because of the nature of the illness. Those inflicted may go underground and not seek treatment or may find themselves in trouble with the law. Let's all learn to recognize the nature of this illness."
