The VA healthcare system and the disability processing is aggravating. My psychologist felt like I should be 100% permanent instead of 70% service connected with individual unemployability. The doctor they had me see for my eval saw me for a whole of about 15-20 minutes. I would think it would be kinda hard to figure out what degree a person is without seeing them.

I really think something needs to be done about the healthcare system set up for Veterans. Especially the psychiatric care due to the amount of soldiers, sailors and airmen coming back with PTSD.

I was almost medically discharged, but I couldn't take one more day of where I was working (I could have waited out the medical board if I wanted to). I took my honorable discharge and crossed my fingers with filing a disability claim.

But thanks txmomof3. :)
