title: War and the long-term psychiatric health of journalists who cover it
abstract: Journalists who covered wars in Afghanistan, Iraq and elsewhere that began after 9/11 have a high lifetime prevalence of PTSD, major depression, any anxiety disorder and alcohol use disorder; 12-month prevalence for PTSD and any anxiety disorder remains elevated, albeit less so. War journalism is hazardous, and risk severity predicts PTSD, highlighting the importance of therapy availability.
