ptsd Interpetation Of Axix I

[stever]

My AXIS I diagnosis is PTSD and recurrent major depressive disorder separate from the PTSD, but aggravated by it. The wording of separate has me curious. Could someone clarify this for me.

Thanks,

Stever

Well, you have a co-morbid condition of MMD and a GAF of 50. All things being equal that should get you 70%. Are you working? Your ability to work is a big factor in your rating for any mental health disorder.

No I am not working, lost my job last September. I've kept all my employer write-ups for the past 8 years, this should come in handy for TDIU which I'm preparing right now.

Thanks
