Thanks for tuning in! We hope this gives you insight into the 100% PTSD rating criteria and how Veterans can meet it. Please check the description for additional resources!

VA recognized by PTSD but they say it can't be related to the Navy. I was tortured while I was in the Navy.

This would really help me alot on my C and P exam this coming week 22 and 23 of February 2022.

I'm rated at 50% right now but applying for an increase since I am now experiencing hallucinations, both audible and visual. Sever irritation, panic attacks, disturbed sleep, severe anxiety, and angry outbursts, I also have trouble remembering details. I am now continuing my therapy at the VA center near me.

I was recently diagnosed with PTS and am just waiting on my rating. I served two combat tours in Afghanistan.

Great information Maura

Thank you so much for sharing!

Really good information thank you

I was given a 30% PTSD from my exposure to the traumas in the Vietnam war. However, as soon as I was awarded 30% for Parkinson’s, my PTSD was removed and is no longer in my list of disabilities. I fail to understand why Parkinson’s is remotely related to PTSD. My Parkinson’s was caused by being sprayed three times directly with Agent Orange. Therefore, because PTSD was removed from my list (which discounted my disability total rating) and because the award list is what the Foreign Medical Program reimburses for; how will I get reimbursed for any PTSD treatment I might need out of the country. To me, it is just wrong.

I'm waiting on my VA Disabillity claim Answer

What are some of the SMC’s for 100% PTSD?

I was given 70% and am going for 100%. I do suffer from panic attacks and extreme aggressive behavior. I take it out on the wrong people, which isn't fair. I wish I could just get the help instead of the money. The VA charged me over $35,000 for ptsd treatment.

Now my family is homeless with 3 toddlers and they cut his income I take care of all of them so now we don't know what to do they say we can't appeal is that legal?

You know my PSYCHOLOGIST is writing ✍️ me up to get it SO HONESTLY I think it’s best to APPROVE IT and that’s not a THREAT. Because I’m about to START TEARING SHIT UP AGAIN IF YOU DON’T. And you REMEMBER how SOUTHERN CALIFORNIA was when I LOST IT BEFORE. I’m just being as HONEST AS I CAN. Because I’ve tried the PEACEFUL APPROACH but after the last incident where SOMEBODY PUSHED ME for no apparent reason I wanted to REMOVE HIS HEAD FROM HIS BODY. Because I haven’t had anything like that happen to me since 1993 and I FEEL LIKE I’M TRAPPED IN A CORNER WITH NO WAY OUT TO REASON. I can take the VERBAL ABUSE no problem but to PHYSICALLY put your hands on me is UNACCEPTABLE. That’s a SELF DEFENSE JUDGEMENT and a trip to the morgue. 🙏⚖️🤲🏽

Should I take my Safety Plan with me to my PTSD C&P exam?

Can migraines cause PTSD if it affected your work and social ?

what happens if the VA refuses to diagnose you with PTSD...diagnose you with every "SYMPTOM" of PTSD....but wont give you an official diagnoses of "PTSD"....because im only at 50 percent and my life has straight up fallen apart since my initial rating in 2016. IM currently working to gain evidence to prove my condition worsened through a private doctor (as im afraid the VA will try to look for reasons not to increase my disability or downplay any symptoms I have) and im just nervous I wont get a 90-100 percent because the VA, even during treatments (that never worked), never actually diagnosed me with "PTSD". Although I was sent to the PTSD clinic from my PA and did a few sessions, doctor during the PTSD clinic even said its weird im not diagnosed officially with PTSD since its clear and obvious I am. IDK why the VA has to be so confusing.

As a disabled veteran,where do I take c&p exams?

If you are considered “total occupational and social impairment” is this automatically permanent and total?

Does self injurious behaviors include biting on the side of your tongue because of anxiety? The sides of my tongue are permanently scared and missing and causes swelling and was denied OSA because my oversized tongue was a factor.
