ptsd Stressor Letters

[#1Cavtrooper]

Just a little information I found while preparing my claim last January. US Veterans Compensation Programs has some very good examples of stressor letters. Once you are at the site, check the drop down on the left about two-thirds down.

Three sections to the format: Life Before Military Service: Life During Military Servive and Life After Military Service. Helpful for all PTSD claims including PTSD/MST.

Tehy already have a 15 page letter of me bellyachin bout my life, before during after. My life has been messed up since the day I was born. No warm and fuzzies here. the military was just worse. I was on my own and the Militry forced me into situations I got myself in trouble and they sure as hell had a lot to do with that. I cant write stressor letter/no way no how. Mystic

It is best not to mention any "prior to military service" problems, as the VA will pick up on those and deny any claims they can, even tho they may have nothing to do w/a current condition but that's just the way it is. If the VA requires a stressor letter, you should do one, or possibly lose your claim. It may be something that needs to be written over multiple sittings, due to the stress it brings w/it, but not doing it will only hurt your claim. jmo
