The Battle Back Foundation has partnered with world renowned thought leaders, physicians, clinical psychologists, psychiatrists, and social workers to assist with police officers' mental health. Post Traumatic Stress Disorder (PTSD) has become an often overlooked mental roadblock.

The Battle Back Foundation is positioned to alleviate some stress by covering the costs of the physician visits and medications needed to treat respective disorders, including medications available through Cost Plus Drugs. By easing the burden of expensive medications our heroes and first responders can focus on Battling Back to a life filled with hope and opportunities.

Tyler's vision in creating this foundation will provide a critical resource to our nation's first responders." said Mark Cuban.
"I have seen the impact Cost Plus Drugs has had on myself, family members, friends, and co-workers, relative to gaining access to affordable medication. This company will continue to impact the lives of Americans for good. I am honored that Mark Cuban and Cost Plus Drugs have collaborated with the ‘Battle Back Foundation' to provide affordable medication to those who otherwise could not afford access to these essential resources." - Tyler Beddoes- Utah Police Officer, Best-Selling Author, and the co- founder of the Battle Back Foundation
PTSD is marked by clear biological changes as well as psychological symptoms. These symptoms can include nightmares, intrusive recollections, flashbacks, and psychological distress. Someone with PTSD can be triggered by loud noises, smells, or unexpected movements (e.g. feeling jumpy or on edge). They may have difficulty sleeping and feel detached or estranged from the world and their family and friends. One might actively avoid a person or a place that reminds them of a tragic event and brings on overwhelming symptoms. As a result, one's ability to function in social or family life can become significantly impaired. Individuals with PTSD may also develop additional disorders such as anxiety, depression, insomnia, alcohol, and substance abuse, among others which often worsens over time. The treatment often requires medications that help to reduce the anxiety, depression, and disorders associated with it.
The Battle Back Foundation will be the #1 resource for our nation's police officers and offer them the much-needed help in 1) Mindset Education 2) Clinical Resources 3) Financial Assistance and 4) Community Involvement with donations going directly to assist in these areas. Our heroes help us in our time of need, let's rise together and help them in their time of need.
