I think the military could save a lot of time and money if psychological exams were a part of being entered into service. Fact is there are plenty of people who were nuts before they joined and were themselves unaware until something set them off

Yes it is a bad deal frankly so I already have a lawyer from sokolov. As for the exit exam this is how it played out. In may 7 1999 at 10am I was released frim restriction and taken to the hangerwhere I was thrown a stack of papers the size of a book with no explanayiin as to what I was signing.an hour later I was out . I didn't have time to think or process anything. Like u said I'm not a doctor lol. So dispite what they consider normal they thought jeffrey daumer and gacey and manson were normal nice people they found out they had boddies in the backyard. Just sayin

What I stated in my post is exactly what was in the discription. It was the only thing along with a list of evidence they obtained.I dnt know what to do because when I saw the doc for ssdi thy didn't ask me anything personal they gave me a compentancy test and asked about my ghost friend and that was only vecause I was talking to him. When I see docs at va my counselor nor my shrink wrote down anything I said. I was not given a c&p exam . I have an appointment for a new psychologist. So do I need an outside one as well. I dnt know how long it will take for the de novo since I just filed the nod yesterday. So am I on my own with the medical part. I did not report my incident to the service but I have staements frim people who were there when I was in my claim. In my letter they didn't give any real explanation beyond what I told u in my topic. I have been out since 99 and was not diagnosed til 2009 . After I got out the military I got fired from every job I got. Have been talking to myself.and seeing things etc on top of that I even had a couple suicide attempts but the hospital cannot find the record for it was ten yrs ago. They are stati ng that I told my seperation examiner I didn't have anxiety or depression.I never saw a doctor. How could I complain about what I didn't know. I will try to do what barbara said though I dnt think it will be easy.

Ill try to make it short. I filed for disability ( generalized anxiety and depression) and IU. I was denied on all three. The reason was stated as -1. it is denied because it is not service connected. 2. Evidence does not show an event, disease or injury in service. 3. Service record show no complaints , treatment or diagnoses. 4. On seperation exam u stated that u do not have anxiety or depression. I just gave u five statements . Only number 2 is true. This is their evidence. I have 15 pieces with several or more in support. This is my case:1. they say my condition is not service related. They have zero tangible proof that it is not related. I have given my statement and buddy statements to corroborate my story coupled with the events in my file. The personal detail r not in my file as people who r assaulted rarely come forward. 2. Evidence does not show an event etc. The events in my statement are documented in my file. 3.your service treatment records do not contain complaints etc. How can I complain about what I dnt know. 4.evidence does not show a current diagnosed disability. They have my file from social security which I'm sure states I have generalized anxiety. 5. At seperation I stated I do not have have depression or anxiety. It is impossible I said that because I was never asked and I never saw the doc. Call me stupid but even an idiot can see they have no evidence of their own to dspute my claim while I have in support. I want to know what my chances r at de novo or dro...help........
