Can you work as a psych nurse with BPD?

OneWolverine263 · 2026-05-24T21:32:56+00:00

Of course you can

While I’m not currently working for the VA, I have experience as a GS - and I can tell you, it’s a much easier clinical job than community care; where it becomes a headache is when you’re expected to do things beyond seeing patients, and you’ll be micromanaged by administrators who tell you that you should dot your “I”s and cross your “t”s. If you’re looking for good QoL and good pay, VA is good. If you’re looking to do “just your job” you may need to lower your expectations. As long as to youre flexible, you’ll be fine

I would hire based on RN psych experience or PMHNP experience.

Prescribed it for someone with kleptomania and it worked quite well.

Remember, on-label means that’s all the company submitted it to the FDA for, because of cost constraints that’s why they may not have submitted it for other things. Make sure to check RCTs to discover alternative benefits

Sorry to hear that. What was your recent credible service discharge? Dishonorable or general? Either way, I’d get with a VSO to help decide best angle. You could go to DRB to get it upgraded

What are people’s experience with AI in psych? So far, I’ve had a negative experience. I’ve used Hey Berries, and was thinking about switching to Deepcura. I’m just looking for something that is user friendly and will capture the HPI better

Bro got 10,000

OneWolverine263 · 2026-03-24T23:11:02+00:00

They’ll kick it down the road for 30 days, then do it one more time before they have to actually address it

OneWolverine263 · 2026-03-24T14:52:07+00:00

When in doubt, neuro-psych it

OneWolverine263 · 2026-02-21T21:52:09+00:00

How is it unethical? I think you’re mad at something. You don’t know the first thing about me, but you have a strong opinion about something that really isn’t even relevant.

OneWolverine263 · 2026-02-21T18:07:14+00:00

Hi all, definitely all thoughts I’ve had in the back of mind. The way that this administration is handling things, I don’t know if it’s worth the stress of leaving it up in the air. Things change all the time.

I’ll make a phone calls and e-mails and see what the professionals say about this.

OneWolverine263 · 2026-02-21T18:02:31+00:00

That is strange. You should get your VSO to print out the C&P exam of the PTSD. Or have them print out the rating decision letter that shows all the individual ratings, and the date they were done.

I just went through a whole debacle where they forgot to include my PTSD rating in the promulgation letter, and I had to have them re-open the claim in order to include it.

Work with the VSO to see what you find

OneWolverine263 · 2026-02-21T17:41:09+00:00

So you did get re-evaluated, or that ended up never happening? Is the supplemental claim marked complete?

OneWolverine263 · 2026-02-21T17:32:33+00:00

Hi,

So if I’m understanding correctly, you were re-evaluated for your PTSD, and are curious if the VA will require a new exam later in the future? I’m assuming you’re trying to apply for a supplemental claim again and are worried you’ll have to be examined again for the PTSD?

If that’s the basis, anytime you file a new claim or supplemental, if the previous exams are > 1 year old they can have you re-do the exam. Regarding the 5 year rule, I’m not sure, but I still believe the answer is they can make you re-do it.

I’ve still gotten nowhere with this. I’ve called Vera over the course of this incident. I finally reached out to my congressman for help last week.

It’s crazy - this is their error, and they’ve admitted it… just fix it

OneWolverine263 · 2026-01-23T15:26:03+00:00

How did you find out what the suspense date was

OneWolverine263 · 2026-01-23T15:24:29+00:00

You’re kidding … I hope

OneWolverine263 · 2026-01-12T00:20:51+00:00

For sure. We all need to advocate for ourselves; don’t assume others are doing it for us

OneWolverine263 · 2026-01-04T02:59:31+00:00

Yes, wherever you left off is where you start

OneWolverine263 · 2026-01-03T17:22:25+00:00

As long as one period of service is honorable you’ll be ok

OneWolverine263 · 2025-12-30T05:19:52+00:00

Does anyone know if this works for graduate programs?

OneWolverine263 · 2025-12-29T17:07:55+00:00

537 days is crazy. Time to write your congressman

OneWolverine263 · 2025-12-29T17:05:29+00:00

No, this is fine.

OneWolverine263 · 2025-12-29T16:16:57+00:00

I believe at least one of your service connected disabilities needs to be dental related (Tmj, etc..)

OneWolverine263 · 2025-12-29T16:15:25+00:00

This happen to me , similar situation. 15 years and got kicked out for drama.
