Thank you for information.

I got a 100% rating today. 2 weeks ago I asked for help here and got a lot of advice. I'm numb, it's very bizarre, I should be happy, but it's just like any other day. One of the posters was correct when they said fast forward to winning, what next... I still don't know. My question is my disability is metal health related. There is wording in my award letter that says, "No examination will be scheduled in the future for your permanent and total disability/disabilities" "Basic eligibility to Dependents' Education Assistance is granted as the evidence shows the veteran currently has a total service-connected disability, permanent in nature". Does this mean they will not lower my rating at any time? I've read others having to get reviews? What should I be looking for in this letter and what does it mean? I'm scared to accept this all as truth. But thank many of you so much. My greatest hope is I can become the Uncle I truly want to be.

Thank you to everyone. I was under the impression I could get my C&P results-I have an appointment tomorrow so I will go to the VA to the release of information desk. Also will look into applying for the pension/. I applied for pension one time and they told me I had to be 100% completely disabled permanently. I guess this was wrong information. Will look into it again. Anyone know time tables on this stuff? Pension? and my claim after my C&P is complete? I know at best, these could be closed eyes guesses, ballpark figure will do. I don't have any addictions. Chronic apathy and numbness is what I've developed I think.

I don't know... I just want to start with a secure place to sleep... and go from there. disagree on in-patient, but thatnks.

I can't find the C&P exam results! I have looked all over that website and see no mention of it. ______________________ I can't prove my stressor, the incident was never reported. my therapist seems to think it is fine though., he used to sit on boards. he wrote me a thing to submit, I can't make myself read it though.

Thank you guys. I do not know if my PTSD is been determined to be service related by the VA. Where can I find that out? Also, where can I find my C&P exam results on myhealthvet?

Sorry for being the new guy and asking for help, I don't know where else to turn. I have had such a hard time doing this. it's the nightmare task for me. I'll try to make this as short as possible. I've never filed claim previous to the one I am awaiting a decision on. I've been diagnosed by the VA with PTSD, anxiety and depression. I've been homeless off and on for over 2 years. I got hit by a car while being homeless and had to have two surgeries (one the VA did not cover-I have to appeal)(65,000 in debt). I have this police report I have held 2 jobs. One I held for 6 months (internship) wasn't asked back and the other for 2 months (fired) I've tried college twice, failed out both times in first semester, but I did finish my last 30 hours of my bachelor degree immediately when I got out of active duty. My military record shows 'slight anxiety' listed in my separation physical. It also notes I did not receive a post deployment evaluation or a brief on va benefits. it also shows I was told by my superior during deployment to report to medical because of anxiety. I have a police record from two years ago where my father called the police in fear I had or was going to commit suicide. I've showed up the the va because of hallucinations after not being able to sleep on the street for 4 days. The VA knows about my homelessness and it has been tracked, My VA record shows a record of me downplaying my condition (because I was afraid they would lock me up if I admitting to things like suicidal thoughts.) I have all the documentation to prove major stories in my life, like an email from my mom to one of her friends years ago talking about being afraid of me and my condition. -but I don't know how to package it. I had my C&P exam a week ago and need to submit any thing else I want to soon. My C&P exam lasted about 30-45 minutes. I started my claim in NOV 2013. I was separated in 2008. My life has gone downhill since. I don't have any friends, my father doesn't talk to me anymore, and my mother only tolerates me because she knows I will live on the streets if she doesn't. should I write a personal statement or something? should I go through my record and list things like symptoms/incidents that are relevant? Should I take a picture of a scar I have from a flashback I experienced-I was in the shower and I broke the soap dish off and fell on it cutting my buttocks wide open. I went to the VA emergency room but left after waiting for too long. I was worried about the wound not being cleaned and healed. (This is documented in my VA record as leaving because of a long wait) Please help. I'm seeing a private therapist my mom pays for-he wrote a report but that was before I was willing to open up to him (when the police show up and are talking about taking you to a mental hospital-you quit telling people things) I'm terrified my claim will get denied. I don't have anything else to hold on to. will they deny me just so they don't have to pay me backpay? is that common? I'm sorry for annoying you guys if this information is already on the site. just having a hard time with this. thanks.
