bipolar-vet

All, I am one of the few that are stricken with Bipolar disorder aggravated by Military service. Of course getting the SC is the hard beginning. After that you struggle to get past the 10% that is mostly issued for this disorder. I am here today to tell you it can be done! This week I received my latest Award letter. 100% just for the bipolar. The key really is patience and excellent records. If you have the documentation and a few years, it can happen. I started at 30%, then 50% and now 100%. Hang in there all...... Frm. SGT, USMC

Everybody, I am living proof that even a terrible C&P can work! I just received my award letter after a long year and a half wait. 100% for Bi-polar disorder. Hang in there everybody the wait is terrible, but sometimes you get what you need.

Hey All. I went to my C&P almost a year ago. I dont know who she was because she never introduced herself, or gave me a title. I am a bipolar patient of 8 years (very documented in the VA). she spent 5 minutes asking me worthless questions, then told me my problem was all personality disorders not bipolar. she then went as far as acusing me of using heroin. when I became upset, she said she felt unsafe and ended the interview. I responded later in letters to the VA voicing my complaint. They launched an investigation but I never heard anything. Now my claim is in the middle of the decsion board and im wondering how much weight that could carry. thanx Fmr. Marine SGT
