Post-Traumatic Stress Disorder- VA Disability Compensation
Post-traumatic stress disorder (sometimes also referred to as post-traumatic stress syndrome) is prevalent in the Veteran community. A study published in August 2022 found that 67% of all Veterans with a service-connected injury also suffered from PTSD.
VA offers disability compensation and healthcare for Veterans with a mental health disability caused by their military service, including PTSD. Additional resources for PTSD treatment can be found here.
The VA has also implemented the Veterans Crisis Line. If you are in immediate crisis, dial 988 and Press 1 for help.
Due to the difficulty discussing traumatic military events, some Veterans struggle to obtain service connection for PTSD. If you’ve received an unfavorable decision from VA, Bergmann & Moore may be able to help.
