  1. Hi everyone! Although I have been visiting this forum for quite some time this is the first time I've actually posted. I received my denial letter from the DRO yesterday. I was a bit bummed but not entirely upset which is good in a odd way. It means my antidepressants and lithium actually work otherwise I'd be crying hysterically, ha. I can't figure out why it keeps getting denied. To make a long story short about my situation, I was sexually assaulted by a coworker. After that incident I blocked it out of my mind. I didn't want to believe that something like that happened to me. I was getting ready for my overseas physical when I found out I was pregnant. I hadn't had sex with anyone since that night. That's when I had to face the fact that what happened that night was real. I made a report to NCIS and they said I didn't follow the criteria for someone who'd been sexually assaulted. WTF?!? I got counseling while in service and after service to the present. He was demoted and I was forced out. They said I had "personality disorder". Yeah of course my personality is going to change after something like that, yeesh. Prior to the sexual assault he had harassed me all the time about the guys I like to date. But as usual I just blocked it out of my mind and didn't think much of it. Besides I don't think there's any way I could prove the harassment. That's pretty much it. I just need a pep talk I guess. Thanks to all who respond. ymc
