Good Morning community-
Earlier this month I recieved 100% service connection, a surprizing 2 1/2 months after submitting my claim on e-benefits. After living off of a few hundred bucks a month for the past 3 years I woke up to $6k in my bank account, so life feels great right now.
A friend of mine is telling me to file my NOD anyways, for the other disabilities they didn't connect, and also to get my SC backdated to the onset of condition - which would be considered starting in the last 2 months of service before recieving my honorable discharge, 9 years ago.
Who has experience with this? Is there a legitimate route I can take to get my 100% backdated to the diagnosis of my PTSD, and without a lawyer?
Thanks and happy Sunday.

I have seen a lot of veterans asking the question, "If I knew then what I know now..." The other day I talked with a veteran who didn't even know it was possible to file a disability claim

I'll help you get it, broken soldier. You get PTSD from the war (or TBI, whichever). PTSD/TBI have been known to cause mental health problems, that is why its listed as a MENTAL HEALTH DISORDE
