:excl: Got a copy of my C&P for depression, This is what the breakdown is. Just wanted to see what your thoughts are on it. Thank you all.

40-BLADDER PROBLEMS

10-Gerd
10-Cubital Tunnel
10-Sciatica For a VA total of 80% disabled
Put another claim in for deppression, panic attacks
Multi-Axial Diagnosis
Axis I Major Depressive disorder, chronic, mild, panic disorder withoutagoraphobia.
Axis II None
Axis III See medical records
Axis IV Primary stressors: chronic pain, bladder problems, recent demise of primary relationship
Axis V Gaf=55
Impression: Mr.Willie 74 is a Coast Guard veteren who meets diagnostic criteria for depression and panic disorder. His inability to manage his panic attacks and his lack of motivation and productivity impact his work functioning. He will likely have diffleculties at this time in any regualr work environment where he feels significant stress. His social functioning is also low. He reported that his prior relationship of two years broke up with him becuase of his physical medical problems. This has increased his isolation and concerns about interacting with others. He does enjoy spending time with his brother.
There is no indication the veteren is not competent to manage any award if granted.
Mr. Willie 74 has undergone mental health treatment in the past with some benefits. He had only recently engaged with the ????? veterns affairs medical center. If he does continue to be engaged in mental health care, it is likely that his mood would improve.
Based on the availiable information, it is more likely than not that his depression and panic attacks are cuased or exacerbated by his service connected medical problems..
I have been seeing a phyc for almost a year and then I decided to claim for depression and panic attacks. My past Gaf were 50
58
60
and the C&p gaf was 55.
What do you all think? I have applied for IU after my intial disability claim and was denied.
