Don't be a dumb joe and leave money on the table. Like I said, if you're too "proud", take it and donate it to a veterans charity or something. Plenty of folks not getting enough for what they put in.

I'll never go back to the VA hospital again personally, and consider myself lucky to live nearly 100 miles away from the closest one because they actually did try coming to my house when I first got out and refused to go back. The shittiest part is, even with my own insurance I can't go to a private doctor to get treatment for PTSD. When I tried they told me they can't treat it and that I have to go through the VA hospital for service-related injuries. | |||

As far as living 100 miles away from a VA hospital, thats great, you can get seen by a civilian provider without having to go to the VA hospital. It's really not hard Of course this has nothing to do with you not getting the money from your disability sooooo...

Don't get me wrong it would be awesome to get real treatment for PTSD and to just feel normal again (which is why I originally went to the hospital in the first place), but it's not realistic. Anyone from my generation who served is completely aware that there is no help at the VA, and going there just adds fuel to the fire. I've gotten to the point where I've learned to live with it and honestly I don't even think about it that much anymore, the anxiety is always there, but before my PTSD was on a different level, like 24/7 flashbacks, not sleeping for days at a time, getting in fights with random strangers over nothing etc. | |||
