After a period of time the doc handed him a card for a escort and told him to go see her not for sex but for the companionship needed. He did take the doc up on the offer and saw her multiple times and said it helped him tremendously.
My question to the guys is, if your Dr gave u a recommendation to see a escort would u.
To the girls would u want to make a deal with a Dr for this kind of service.
To the Dr's would u give a this kind of recommendation?

To be perfectly honest, his story sounds like bullshit. I've seen Army and VA psychologist's on and off since I deployed to Iraq in '05 for PTSD related issues and I can't imagine one of them recommending this in a million years. They encouraged me to seek out friendships and talk and talk and talk and
to avoid seeking out meaningless sex/one-night-stands as it would muddle up "the process". They were all very clear that I avoid three things, drugs, alcohol and casual sex, as many soldiers they were helping became addicted to those things as a coping mechanism.
I'm not saying he didn't seek out intimacy from provider's to help him reintegrate and that it didn't help him. I just doubt that a doctor told him it was a good idea. My guess is that was his own way of justifying the hobby in his head.
