    I have a C & P exam on 4, Sept. I am already getting nervous. It is for PTSD. I was deployed to Mogadishu, Somalia in 1990. I am nervous. I have heard some horror stories from fellow Veterans.

      I went through this, for the same reason, a little over a year ago (August 2023). Look at it this way: if your paperwork is on point, your C&P is your chance to put a face and a personality onto your file. The first two things you need to do is not blow off your appointment and show up on time (that is, 20-30 minutes early). I assumed that I was being observed in the waiting room so I sat as quietly and calmly as I could.
      When I was asked how I was doing by the examiner, I told her that frankly, I'd been better. Don't go in there trying to put a brave face on anything. I know we've been taught to "suck it up," but that's probably a big part of the reason why we're in the shape we're in now, and this is NOT the time for it. Don't over-dramatize, but also don't lie. Tell The Truth about the effect that military service has had on you...especially if there's more good than bad. If your mental condition has cost you jobs, relationships, and fueled fires that left you smoldering in jail a few times over the years, say it...and provide the paperwork. But again, Do Not Lie. Benefits fraud is a crime. Also, if you give the examiner a reason to think you're trying to run some scam, he's going to say so in his assessment and the VA is going to deny you.
      As for the examiner...fortunately, mine were polite and courteous but I have heard tales of examiners attempting to provoke vets into losing their tempers, taking the BS personally and giving the jerk a reason to deny you. If you are baited, let it swim on by. You have an objective here, that's proving that you should receive assistance from the VA for the after-effects of having volunteered for the military, being sent to Somalia and subsequently developing life issues had you stayed at home with the 98% of the US population that didn't/doesn't/don't and won't serve. While your examiner isn't necessarily an enemy, neither is he a friend so if you have to take a few deep breaths and count to 10 before you speak, do that. Keep your cool.
      I know the horror stories are bad, heartbreaking even. I sat in PTSD "groups" with guys who had been fighting with the VA over things they'd experienced in Vietnam when I was learning how to ride a bicycle. I want to end by saying that the two claims I submitted in March of 2023 were both judged and rated by August of 2023 without any hassle or drama because the paperwork was submitted with a ton of proof (copies of my service records and VA medical records) and I treated the C&Ps almost like job interviews. And I'm nothing special. You can get through this. You're going to get through this. And I'm believing for you, that you're going to have a rating of at least 50% "done and dusted" by Christmastime...so be cool. Believe for yourself too!

    Medical Evidence, Medical Evidence, Medical Evidence. Did I say Medical Evidence?? If you do not have it, there is no attorney that can get you a solid rating that will stick!!! And, if a rating is given, will it pass the follow up in 5 years? As a PA and former Corpsman I arrest that no evidence, no eating.

    So I am getting DIC from my husbands death to Parkinsons. He was in the military for 4 years. I doon't know what his diabolity rate was before his death. He had several things that are now considered, but since he died in September of 2022, can I still submit claims regarding the additional disabilities he had?

      Sorry to hear that. Did you report his death to the VA? You do not want a bill for overpayment/ happens

      PTSD and any other Mental health rating can be rated separately. It depends on the symptoms and the VA rater, who actually knows how to seperate the symptoms, etc.
