Hello Everyone

[Schoo]

I must have read for like 4 hrs last night. These guys know their shit. I've waited 17 yrs to even approach the VA and I think It might be time. I didn't want anything to do with US Govt. after I got out. I sought treatment through my prvt. healthcare. My psychiatrist warned me that I probably had this situation all along and It is just feeding on itself and gotten worse over the years left untreated.

Yea it's not going to be easy but getting that claim filed and in the door is a good step.
I'm not sure if you'd have any hickups with them finding documentation, perhaps you could ask your private healthcare to share it over?
To speed it up.

I will authorize my prvt. docs to share with VA. I don't have very much history because I never sought treatment for something that I didn't know I had or even what It was. All I know is everyone thought I was an asshole and still do. I am not an asshole I am a nice person.

Welcome Sailor!

You're among the chosen few swab jockeys to grace this forum. Spent two years at sea before I ended up in Nam. Tin-can sailors are the only ones who spent as much time at sea as service vessels. That's one fine looking Mae-West you're wearing - not big on the Int'l Orange though IoI.

You're in the right place brother - lots to read so pull up a chair.
