Just Returned From Ptsd C & P

Rate this question


Notorious Kelly

Question

45 minute session - nice doctor

Spent 30% of time on childhood: upbringing, trauma, feelings about that

Then: Do I avoid thinking/talking about stressor?

What causes PTSD symptoms? How do I spend my time? etc

I really don't buy that the "Remember 4 things to repeat later.." is an accurate test of your concentration/memory abilities but....

My primary problems are chronic pain associated with neuropathy, etc and I was honest about that.

He said it takes a couple months to hear anything.

He didn't ask anything about homicidal ideation but it's in paperwork I submitted. I brought my whole packet, including a collateral letter I just received from my sister yesterday. Appears that he only saw what was in my VA records but none of the evidence I submitted with PTSD application.

I also included my UI info in a summary at the end of the stressor letter instead of the outdated ailment list in my records.

So, it's in the works! For anyone anxious about the PTSD C & P it was pretty painless.
