I've discovered this great community by accident while looking for a quality IMO that's speaks the VA's language and I'm glad I did. I know we are all here to share our experiences and learn from everyones wins, denial or simply vent our frustrations. I see we are trying to get the help we need but mostly the compensation we deserve by pleadings our individual cases to the VA.

I know we all want get paid but please my brother and sisters in arms get the help you need! I continously read post after post of all the disabilities being fought for and I think to myself "I'm fucked up but damn I'm not the only one." What's the point of getting that 100% or any rating if we can't enjoy the shit. Attend those therapy sessions be it psychological or physical. Drop that weight, eat healthier, pick up an old or new hobby. We need and want to live happier and more fulfilling lives. The military is behind us now yet stains our thoughts and bodies. We aren't fragile broken things labeled one time use.

Let's get our shit together and conquer the ailments that plague our lives.
