Can anyone help me with what they gave me on these forms. Because it seems like most of my symptoms were not addressed, maybe it's my fault because I didn't want to talk much about my issues. Once I get out of the army, will I get another exam for PTSD?

Hey, I did pretty much the same thing during my exam. I was still in the therapy phase and was shut down. I ended up getting 50 percent for mine. I honestly can't imagine how anyone can function at a rating of100 percent for PTSD and stays at that rating unless purposely doing so ( ptsd is something that can be eased with work). Sorry I didn't answer your question, just thought I would give you an idea of what I received. Anyhow, good luck and keep working on therapy etc. !

In my experience, I would say you're looking at 50 - 70% rating. Your social impairment leans toward a 70% rating but there are other factors. "Note that if your mental condition was/is caused by a stressful event in service that was severe enough to bring about your release from service, per VA regulations a review exam needs to be done 6 months following your discharge from active duty to determine whether a change in evaluation is warranted."

If I’m being MEDBoarded, do they look at my EBH stuff as well? Or do they just rate off the DBQ.
 
If they have records of your EBH then they would take that into consideration as well.
 
70% is pretty high rating. Do you believe that percentage is wrong?
 
It is a 70% based on the DBQ.
 
Hey everyone, jumping in here for the first time. This PTSD discussion hits close to home for a friend of mine. It's definitely not a walk in the park, and finding healthy ways to cope is crucial.

While I can't speak from personal experience, I've heard that EMDR therapy can be a real game-changer for people struggling with PTSD. It seems to help reprocess those traumatic memories and break free from their grip. There's this website called fherehab.com that has some resources specifically about EMDR, might be worth checking out
