Those who have discharged: How are you going now?

I've been reading Volume 5 of the commission report regarding discharge modes across Defence and its got me wondering how are you doing now?

For me its been a couple years, Medsep, DVA is finished and relatively stable but its taken a good few years to get to this point, I am basically at the "rose tinted glasses" stage. I know some other mates that still battle DVA and CSC and keep getting dragged through the system, cant imagine what its like. I had a pretty ok discharge process but i will never forget my last day, waiting for some civvie discharge family person for my exit interview but they never showed up, i left and didnt even hand my ID back. Just drove out the gates and went home, really weird, no goodbye nothing

I miss it. I was forced to take a medical discharge after the admin system had been weaponised against me. So my career I had planned on spending the rest of my life in was robbed from me.

So honestly not good. My entire treatment team is on edge. I’m on edge. I tried not to read any of the report but I couldn’t help myself.

Yeah that pissed me off. Especially when it was in something like a suitability for service psychology assessment. They got my name, date of joining, ships served in, date of assessment and my rank wrong all in the one document. Like the essential information was there right??

What pissed me off most was finding out what was in my personnel file

I’m just glad for my pension and the projects I have to keep my mind occupied
