Claim For Sexual Trauma

[Dewey2k]

I was sexually assaulted by a superior while in the service, and now I'm filing a claim based on that. The trouble is that I didn't report the assault to anyone, and I have nothing other than what my life is like now compared to what it was before I started serving.

What needs to be included in the stressor letter and the paperwork for the claim? If it requires documentation of any type, I have nothing directly related to what happened to me.

Welcome to Hadit.There is help here for you. Are you seeing a therapist about it now? If not you should consider getting help.

How long has it been since you were assulted and discharged? It will require some kind of documentation. You need a psychiatrist or couselor to help you deal with this.
