  1. I wear the same clothes almost everyday jeans and a plaid shirt-literally the same jeans and shirt everyday. I am thinking I should dress up a little for the C+P so they don't think I'm intentionally dressing down? But on the other hand people say be yourself . 3 days to C + P!
  2. Release of Information at the hospital?
  3. Buddy letter saying you are/have been in pain the whole time?
  4. If you're 80% but getting 100% pay for TDIU doyou get base privileges and dental benefits?
  5. No but good to know. I can't imagine I'll be denied at the C+P but you never know.
  6. Had to call crisis line today. Just organizing records to take to C + P pushed me over the edge. I loathe telling about it.
  7. Keep me in your thoughts and prayers I am starting a review of my paperwork for my C+P exam -coming up in 5 days-not fun,not fun at all.
  8. Which mental health conditions do they consider service-connected? Which ones are excluded?
  9. Another option is FMLA leave from your job and looking into your jobs long term dissability insurance. I am not working now due to my PTSD and found out I have over 4 months of sick time and long term disability insurance after that.
  10. Thank You so much. So they can say I'm totally crazy but give me a lower percentage since some of my crazy is not military related.
  11. Next week I have an initial C+P for PTSD. Will Ihave to recount incidents in excruciating detail or are they looking more for symptoms and how they effect you?
  12. I have heard good things about Military Order of the Purple Heart as a VSO.
  13. 70% possibly 100% You got challenges dude stay safe
  14. If you want to retire do it but you will take a financial hit of course. It sounds like the VA could find a reason to lower your percentage as well. Best option is to retire. Imo
  15. My C+P is next week. I'm diagnosed by the VA with PTSD, OCD, Depression, and psychosis. I understand the VA will compensate for PTSD but not OCD. How do they tell what percentage of my disability is PTSD vs OCD?
  16. It is a common "alpha male" response to deny anything is wrong even when things are very wrong....you even convince yourself that it's no big deal.
  17. I can relate. However hallucinations generally fade over time sounds like that is not the case with you. Repressed memory is common in PTSD.
  18. OK I was anxious to get the interview date, now I'm anxious waiting for the interview.
