Well I am 29 I joined the Army in 2000 when I was 17 served till 2009.
3 tours and several injuries.
Broken Back, two broken ankles, TBI, lungs are fried and PTSD.
Ptsd wasnt a big issue for me when I was in. Now that I am out. Each day is worse and worse.
The VA has me at 70% just for ptsd so I am sure you can see its not very good.
I only receive 2 15min sessions a year for ptsd. I am currently working on getting SSD so I can get to a real doctor since the VA sucks in my state.
I figured I would stop just skimming over this website And join. Maybe make some friends to help me through everything!
Thanks guys

Why do you only get 2 15 minute sessions?? I am only 40% ptsd and I'm seen every week for an hour. VA has to go by federal and State guidelines. Your right as a veteran is to say you want better treatment, better treatment that you deserve, make some waves you'll get the help you need there. And in here you'll find a whole lot of us who have your back HOOAH

Are you living on base or the Killeen area? I travel to Ft . Hood regularly -- maybe we could meet in the Boston Pizza in Killeen?
