Nor does it mean that a former soldier is by definition unhappy and nor does it mean that war is the only source of unhappiness or PTSD but degree matters here.

As they say "Life sucks then we die". Now you can sit through life feeling sorry for yourself or you can get on living it. The overwhelming majority of people who go through war do the latter and somehow still manage to do so quite happily.
