I am looking for assistance from someone who has experienced or has knowledge of how the MEB process and the VA deal with sexual trauma PTSD.
In 2010 was the victim of sexual trauma. Out of fear and shame I did not report the incident. I never planned to tell anyone, but over a period of seven years my life began to slowly fall apart. I finally disclosed the incident when I reached a point of suicide. I began seeking assistance from behavioral health, which resulted in me being diagnosed with Bipolar disorder and PTSD from assault and various other traumatic experiences. Now I have been referred to the MEB. I don't know what to expect... I literally know NOTHING about how this works. Does anyone have any experience with this?? Any input would be helpful. Thanks.
