Abstract

Trauma-exposed veterans may be more likely to experience posttraumatic stress disorder (PTSD), chronic pain, and sleep disturbance together rather than in isolation. Although these conditions are independently associated with distress and impairment, how they relate to social functioning and suicidal ideation (SI) when experienced comorbidly is not clear.
