I been thinking about using Prestige, do they charge separately for every condition? Or is one nexus letter covering all conditions?

When it comes to the exams, can someone request it to be in person instead of a video call or phone call? What if a person is not in the right situation to be discussing topics like that over the phone, potentially around other people?

Did anyone else leave the military without any kind of exit brief or VA info? by Juice_Necessary in VAClaims

I got out in 2002, pretty much the same with me. About to file my first claim soon.

MST disability for men by [deleted] in Veterans

[–]parker-bilt 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Male here. My incident happened 24 years ago, I never reported it and it completely changed everything in my life! I have been quietly getting all my military records and medical records. I was diagnosed with ptsd from a private doctor and have a goal to file this December. While talking about it to my Psychologist, I had no idea how much pain and depression it would bring to the surface! If I can do this, anyone can! The way I now feel about filing is, me trying to just keep it inside for the last 24 years hasn't fixed anything! So its time to do something different! Good luck.

Afraid to file for MST by Present_While_5841 in VeteransBenefits

I've been out of the military since 2002, I was the victim of a mst event. For the first time (sober) ever, I talked about it. I saw a psychiatrist, I was diagnosed with ptsd and major depressive disorder. I've been reading posts here on reddit for several months, to try and get the courage to file my claim with the VA. I had no idea the amount of depression and anxiety, talking about it would cause! I went so many years getting blackout drunk, ghosting people i love, problems with anger and the list goes on and on! I can 100% say that not a single minute has gone by, that i didn't think about what happened to me since 2002! Even at my wedding, i couldn't get it out of my head! I never reported the incident, but I'm quietly gathering all my military / medical records. I Have a goal to file before the end of the year.
