Question

Hello everyone

 

when I got out 4 years ago they awarded me 30% for PTSD I got a couple questions.  I look on myhealth.va.gov and notice I aslo had major depression and anxiety disorder. does the the va only give you a single rating for multiple mental disorders or can I get 30% PTSD and same 30% for MDD and a different rating for any other mental health issues. it looks like they just say on my va letter it was all combined as one mental health rating I am confused can anyone help.

You only get one mental disorder rating that does with your primary diagnosis. So many of the symptoms cross over into different mental issues that there would be pyramiding all over the place if they tried to count every single thing.
