[John]

Hi motherfuckers.Breakfast is two yogurts,can a tuna plain,vanilla protein shake,strawberries 1 bowl of raisin bran,water.Not lifting this morning,gonna do it later.
Wish me luck,pray,whatever it is,I have a Compensation Review with the VA today,at 9 am,basically I put in a claim for PTSD in 2013,and i got a 80% rating,so i receive money once a month,I’ve never tried to up it,I’ve been told a million times by other vets to try for a 100%,so I finally did,if I get 100,that money goes up considerably also it means No property taxes,which would be outfuckinstanding.

@John, best wishes for today brother!

Break my fast at 0930 with 246 g egg whites, 2 whole eggs, 2 flour tortillas, 2 breakfast sausage. Made 100% sure I took my pills this morning, yesterday afternoon I got really edgy at work, and already dealing with the bullshit weld I had to make added a little stress and anxiety. Doctor last night was good, weird, I don’t typically feel comfortable talking to people, especially people I don’t know. I don’t make
Eye contact, I avoid things, but last night just going through my experiences in life and her taking notes about everything from the last 41 years, it was really easy to talk. I cried when I talked about my friend being murdered, and I don’t even cry in front of my wife, or daughters… I think this is going to be a positive thing for me going forward!

VA loves 90%. I’m rated at like 140% total but the VA found a way to make it 90….Good luck man. PTSD and 100% have certain criteria they use like unable to work, cant maintain personal hygiene, severely isolated, can’t form relationships or keep them…. I still brush my teeth and get a hair cut now and again which disqualified me from the hundo….

Uncle sugar got endless amounts of cash for everything and everyone but will make a vet jump thru burning rings of fire to get anything.

 

[SpencerCortez]

And civilian docs v military docs you get a very different result when they evaluate in my experience.

 

[John]

Thanks guys

 

[Dirtnasty]

Not sure breakfast it’s barren at gfs place she is ordering food driver

 

[John]

That’s horrible,she needs to go

 

[John]

I bet it felt great @JB_rD81

 

[John]

I’ll let you know how it goes,not that I’ll have a answer right away…

 

[anabolic_geek]

Out on my walk rn. Headed back for breakfast tacos and work.

 

[SpencerCortez]

You’ll get a feel from them.

If ever there was a time to be 110% honest and let it all out it’s when you see the VA psych Dr. Dump every bit of trauma and fucked up shit you have on them man. Don’t hold back at all.

 

[John]

Will do

 

[TBU]

You’ll get it. I’m pretty sure of it. It will work out in the end. Don’t give up. I had to go back a couple times to up mine. Just be persistent in your goal. Check on your sleep too. Ask for a sleep test. That will also help in the long run. Sleep apnea is a common case in most with PTSD.

 

[TBU]

Answers to claims are now 4-5 weeks. They have been doing a lot better lately.

 

[Poppy]

Darn that’s way better. Than the past… year or two!

Much success my bro
