Rate this question

Question

Well today I called the Va to start mental health treatment. I was informed that I needed to register with patient services. So either today or tomorrow I will go to the mental health clinic to begin treatment. So after I go down there and see if I can be seen and helped I will update the results. Prozac seems to only help me be more social. It does nothing for my violent side. So I plan to stay in treatment until I get this mental situation under control.

Well I tried to mingle with civilians and in a week. I almost got in two fights. Deep inside I want it bad pain but LoW key I don't want jail time. Only thing that stopped me from beating these people ass they backed down from me. All I want to do is be in a peaceful place. But I'm surrounded by idiots. Los angeles. I need to move some where where it's not so many people. Also I'm ready for my claim to be over. So I can live my life. Oh yeah at night when I'm waking up. I'm seeing stuff moving around in the dark like alot of stuff. I feel like a madman. I have no choice but to lock myself back in the house. I am way to violent to be with normal idiots. What's crazy is the more I try to avoid violence it seems people wanna test me. They don't know even tho I'm trying not to fight. I want it so bad I LoVE pain from being punched. They are going to open my hidden desires. OOOH well. It's only doctor psychiatrist and me being inside my apartment.

Yeah it was unbearable

VA can get you either bioteen (sp) or Oasis mouth spray to

combat the dry mouth.

The Oasis works best for me.

Therapy and self training can teach you how to react differently in stressful situations.

We have NO control over all the idiots out there -

but we CAN have COMPLETE control over OUR reactions and how we react.

Walking away is REAL EASY - Just Do It !

I myself think I can be quite a bad azz - but have to keep in mind, I'm not the only

bad azz out there.

In other words just because I feel I am capable of taking them down, many of them

are also capable of taking me down.

Yes You are right. I thought I was ready to hang out and get out the house. It could be because I stopped taking those mood stabilizer. I been kind of tweaking out since I stopped taking those. So I'm back in the house from here on out until I improve my anger issues

Well since I'm locked back in the house. I'm pretty much been on my best behavior. I don't know why I thought I was ready to try being SoCial again. Being out in the world seemed to make me more violent. I need to leave the big city and go to a much slower part of California. It's people crawling around here like ants. Drunks bums rude people. No matter how much I try to avoid conflict here it's always there soon as I walk out my front door. Yes I'm back to INSOOOOOMNIAAAA every mourning I'm awake at 3-4 am. Yes waking up from a weird nightmare of some sort. I'm up to 5 prazosin at night for nightmares. They just don't seem to be working. My head hurts just about everyday. to tell y'all the truth I don't know how I got to where I'm at. I like it better when I was just being wild and didn't care about my actions. When I wasn't taking almost ten pills at night. Well I will not be leaving the house. I will be locked away just going to my doctors and psych appointments nothing more. I guess I will try to go back to sleep now that I got this stuff off my mind!!!!! Goooooodnight/Goooodmourning. :-/

Well here I am again. My head hurts my heart seems to be pounding a million times a minute. Well my mind kept messing with me about this individual that was asking me stupid questions in my neighborhood. For two days I been wanting to get this guy. Well I fell weak I put on my kombat boots and hit the highway in search of my question asking buddy. I searched for about 30 minutes street by street till I found him. I asked him did he have a problem where I would have to worry about him later. Long story short. He didn't want to fight. Deep inside I didn't want to harm him but he seemed like a future threat. Night and day this guy was on my mind. But thank GOD HE DIDN'T ACT MAD ARE OUT OF LINE. I don't really think I considered him a threat I just needed a dose of physical pain. Low key I got to get away from where I'm at I'm tired of locking myself inside my room. I need to be some where I can walk around where it is a low number of people. Man I just feel numb inside everyday all day. When I got home from my moment f rage all I could think f is wow. Why did I even go over there I'm sure he wasn't taking it as hard as I was. It seems most the time when I attack people they act like they wasn't even trying to go that far. I feel that I am ultimately dooomed for jail or death. If I can't get my actions under control I will soon perish I'm sure of it. Deep inside I do wish for death at times. I am physically and mentally screwed and it seems like people wanna play games with me. Everyday I check ebenefits checking to see if they took they service connection away from me. I will be glad when my claim is complete so I can move away to another location. This seems like all one big nightmare and not to mention I'm up to 5 PRAZOSIN AT NIGHT FOR nightmares and guess what I'm still having stupid weird violent dreams. Ooooooh well I'm off to bed. :^{ I hope my tomorrow will be better.

    • These decisions have made a big impact on how VA disability claims are handled, giving veterans more chances to get benefits and clearing up important issues.

      Service Connection

      Frost v. Shulkin (2017)
      This case established that for secondary service connection claims, the primary service-connected disability does not need to be service-connected or diagnosed at the time the secondary condition is incurred 1. This allows veterans to potentially receive secondary service connection for conditions that developed before their primary condition was officially service-connected. 

      Saunders v. Wilkie (2018)
      The Federal Circuit ruled that pain alone, without an accompanying diagnosed condition, can constitute a disability for VA compensation purposes if it results in functional impairment 1. This overturned previous precedent that required an underlying pathology for pain to be considered a disability.

      Effective Dates

      Martinez v. McDonough (2023)
      This case dealt with the denial of an earlier effective date for a total disability rating based on individual unemployability (TDIU) 2. It addressed issues around the validity of appeal withdrawals and the consideration of cognitive impairment in such decisions.

    • I met with a VSO today at my VA Hospital who was very knowledgeable and very helpful.  We decided I should submit a few new claims which we did.  He told me that he didn't need copies of my military records that showed my sick call notations related to any of the claims.  He said that the VA now has entire military medical record on file and would find the record(s) in their own file.  It seemed odd to me as my service dates back to  1981 and spans 34 years through my retirement in 2015.  It sure seemed to make more sense for me to give him copies of my military medical record pages that document the injuries as I'd already had them with me.  He didn't want my copies.  Anyone have any information on this.  Much thanks in advance.

    • Caluza Triangle defines what is necessary for service connection
      Caluza Triangle – Caluza vs Brown defined what is necessary for service connection. See COVA– CALUZA V. BROWN–TOTAL RECALL

      This has to be MEDICALLY Documented in your records:

      Current Diagnosis.   (No diagnosis, no Service Connection.)

      In-Service Event or Aggravation.
      Nexus (link- cause and effect- connection) or Doctor’s Statement close to: “The Veteran’s (current diagnosis) is at least as likely due to x Event in military service”

    • Do the sct codes help or hurt my disability rating 
    • VA has gotten away with (mis) interpreting their  ambigious, , vague regulations, then enforcing them willy nilly never in Veterans favor.  

      They justify all this to congress by calling themselves a "pro claimant Veteran friendly organization" who grants the benefit of the doubt to Veterans.  

      This is not true, 

      Proof:  

          About 80-90 percent of Veterans are initially denied by VA, pushing us into a massive backlog of appeals, or worse, sending impoverished Veterans "to the homeless streets" because  when they cant work, they can not keep their home.  I was one of those Veterans who they denied for a bogus reason:  "Its been too long since military service".  This is bogus because its not one of the criteria for service connection, but simply made up by VA.  And, I was a homeless Vet, albeit a short time,  mostly due to the kindness of strangers and friends. 

          Hadit would not be necessary if, indeed, VA gave Veterans the benefit of the doubt, and processed our claims efficiently and paid us promptly.  The VA is broken. 

          A huge percentage (nearly 100 percent) of Veterans who do get 100 percent, do so only after lengthy appeals.  I have answered questions for thousands of Veterans, and can only name ONE person who got their benefits correct on the first Regional Office decision.  All of the rest of us pretty much had lengthy frustrating appeals, mostly having to appeal multiple multiple times like I did. 

          I wish I know how VA gets away with lying to congress about how "VA is a claimant friendly system, where the Veteran is given the benefit of the doubt".   Then how come so many Veterans are homeless, and how come 22 Veterans take their life each day?  Va likes to blame the Veterans, not their system.
