HadIt.com Elder john999 Posted September 26, 2011 HadIt.com Elder Share Posted September 26, 2011 What I mean is you may have the same basic symptoms, but if you can work you get 30%-50% for depression. If you can't work you may get 70% or even 100%. I started at 10% then 30% and when I could not work anymore I got 70% TDIU for symptoms I had had for years except I was able to keep working. What separates those with MH issues from getting 30-50% and those who get TDIU or 100% is the ability to work. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
