While I was stationed in Korea I had another service member go into my bathroom and grab my razor blades and start cutting themselves. They came out and got on there knees and begged me not to tell anyone or leave. They handed me the blade and it was covered in blood. I left and remember reaching into my pocket seeing the blade and getting so nauseous I almost threw up. It’s been a year I went to behavioral health and I’ve had advance resolution therapy sessions to help deal with the memory. I know it’s not combat and it was in garrison. But it really fucked me up. I need therapy like someone to talk to sometimes because I get in a dark place and I need help. But I’m afraid I won’t be able to afford it. Would this be viable claim I could make ? I’m a medic I feel like I failed in every possible way. Sometimes I can’t even look at myself in uniform without crying because of how disappointed I am with myself. Is this a claim I could make with the VA? I’m about to ETS in three weeks from active duty. Any help or advice would be greatly appreciated.
Does going to behavioral health and getting my advance resolution therapy sessions count as a diagnosis? How do I know if they diagnosed me because my BH stuff doesn’t show up in my tricare history for me to view? Also thank you for the last statement sometimes I feel like I’m crazy or being weak but that really meant a lot to me, so thank you
