Unemployability With 70% Overall Rating

Rate this question

Question

All this stuff confuses the heck out of me. I have a combined rating of 70%, my highest individual one being anxiety at 30%. I received this rating in fall 2009 and have been talking to MHC on a weekly then monthly basis; and trying different meds ever since. I held one job for 7 months since my ETS in 2009. After that I've had one job interview, the employer kept making remarks about how I acted and asked if I was ok. Since then I find every excuse in the world to not leave my house. I was considering filing for Increased Compensation Based on Unemployability, but unless I'm mistaken I have to have at least one disability rated at 40% correct? In short, do I need to raise my rating first? Thank you for any information.

To correct my comment about SSD and SSI, in para 2, instead of ...who have enjoyed full employment to qualify in the 5 years before application; should read this in place of: ...who have not enjoyed employment to the extent needed in the preceding 5 years
