2007: Last year of active duty service. No combat tours.  Assigned to a recruiting station, a decade younger than every other Marine in my office. Was often critized for mistakes in job performance. Sometimes I would take breaks and cry in my car because I was so unhappy with that present situation.

  Sept 2007: Talk to a psych once 2 months before discharge about my emotional issues and depressed state.  No diagnosis.

Sept 2008: Diagnosed with Depression. Was taking a med called Citalopram or something.  5 days later had a suicide attempt and was in the VA ward for 3 days.  Was officially diagnosed with MDD less than 1 month after I left service.

Now:  Went for my C&P for Tinnitus. She said I had high frequency hearing loss. They didnt provide me hearing protection (ran out) during grenade throwing which was initial issue.  It effects my sleeping and sometimes have to have people repeat things.

• C&P for MDD: Explained what I have above about my final duty station, my suicide attempt.  Also added: 10 years of not being able to hold a job, quit/get fired for stupid reasons, dont show up cause I dont feel right.  
• I lay in bed for weeks at a time not feeling like doing anything.
• I DO take care of my appearance. 
• Feel hopeless and useless to society
• Cannot make functional relationships with others.  Distrust others automatically.  Avoid others at all costs. 
• Hear voices saying 'its ok to die, the world doesnt need you,'.
• Will continue updated once I re-log on this library computer.

 

What do you guys think/predict/belief?

Chris:  I broke my crystal ball because it NEVER came up with the right answer when dealing with the VA..

I can appreciate your situation.  Now that you had your C&P; I think that's a step in the right direction to get "service connected"

for Tinnitus.  Not knowing anything about your Doctor or what he viewed in your C-File or what you said during the C&P; My opinion is the C&P results are hopefully "favorable" to get service connected for your other conditions.

Don't be scared about doing anything wrong.  We all make mistakes.

Don't listen to those voices.....Remember,,, ,you have a hearing problem!!!    (Sometimes I hear birds say " I don't give a shit"...well at least that's what it sounds like to me!!  Other can't make out what they are saying!!!

Hang in there and keep fighting...    Hope others chime in...

without looking at your C&P notes, or knowing what you may or may not get at Service Connected, i still want to say something. If your C&P Doc put all this information down and it's all verified, then i say you have a case for 100% TDIU and P&T. no matter your scheduler %. if you get lowballed(i did and it's kinda standard for the dicks), or flat out denied, take all your information to a VA Accredited Lawyer, if they are willing to take your case let them.
