    Referred to ND-PEB for chronic PTSD

    You definitely DO NOT want to “Waive your rights”. You can request counsel. We are dealing with this exact thing now. The NG is fighting us all the way. “If you intend to non-concur with separation, you have the right to request your case be sent to the U.S. Army Physical Evaluation Board...

    Be Careful!

    He was not getting paid. They investigated his bank records and he never received a dollar from the nonprofit. They are saying he lied about his mental health status, and if he could volunteer that much, and interact with other veterans dealing with PTSD like he was, then he wasn’t unemployable...

    Be Careful!

    I listened to a podcast this morning he did with Brent Cassity, and he stated he NEVER received a dollar from the nonprofit. They said he was untruthful with the VA representatives he was seeing. The social security administration also investigated him, and they stated they didn’t see anything...

    Be Careful!

    I believe he was volunteering his time. Had seen over 50 VA providers, and his role with the non-profit was not a secret.

    Commander refusing to give LOD/National Guard State Active Duty/T32

    View: https://www.youtube.com/live/UInmrXeVPlE?si=frUz9OF9pzZ2s5AO I just realized the link didn’t go to the video, just the channel. My hope is that others know they aren’t alone.

    Facing Dual Action For ADAPT fail and Bipolar Disorder

    Were you ever deployed? Could you be suffering from PTSD? My husband was wrongly diagnosed by a civilian psychiatrist (he was a traditional guardsman) and discharged, even though Army BH diagnosed him with PTSD after that. I would question it…

    https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCmnoJBrwFmd7JK0HA9KcPaw This is the hearing we attended. We begin at the 1 hour mark. I’m hoping that this law will protect all NG soldiers on state active duty with PTSD.

    Commander refusing to give LOD/National Guard State Active Duty/T32

    Hello All! We are going to Frankfort next week to testify before the Veterans, Military Affairs, and Public Protection Committee on the state law that prevents PTSD without a physical injury to be covered under workers compensation. This injury was from State Active Duty, that ended up with a...

    Commander refusing to give LOD/National Guard State Active Duty/T32

    Here we are again. No call to testify, and still struggling every day. SAD orders are a horrible idea when our Governor doesn’t provide some type of help for the injured soldiers, and pushes it off to a “third party” for responsibilty. In other words, F-off, and let your family deal with the...

    "1 year to get better" for BH/Army National Guard.

Things can get better for you. Nothing like another “deadline” to meet To add to the stress. :( BH/anxiety is not an easy...

    I agree with you there, the state should be responsible. And they can afford it. If they want to. If they can’t, they should not continue recruiting people to positions they can’t cover. In 2020, the KY general assembly started setting aside $1.25 million in funds, annually, to reimburse...

    Commander refusing to give LOD/National Guard State Active Duty/T32

    You are correct. But I believe there HAS to be something established to prevent peoples lives from being destroyed, active, reserve, or whatever, and our government just saying “oh, well, legislation says we are not responsible”. That’s complete negligence. Or am I the crazy one?! LOL!! A...

    Commander refusing to give LOD/National Guard State Active Duty/T32

    Thank you for sharing that with me! Unfortunately, since he was given a bipolar diagnosis last year, they ran with that, and discharged him with it. Since that diagnosis isn’t service connectable, we knew that we couldn’t fight it. What we did not know at that time, was that the workers comp...

    I finally convinced him to talk to these people on the phone. They can’t help because the stressor was on State Active Duty orders. :(
