As far as living 100 miles away from a VA hospital, thats great, you can get seen by a civilian provider without having to go to the VA hospital. It's really not hard

Of course this has nothing to do with you not getting the money from your disability sooooo...

They asked if I ever had suicidal thoughts, and I answered yes, because I genuinely did. The next thing I know the doctor leaves the room and a bunch of security guards swarmed me. Like that's not exactly going to want someone with mental health problems really want to come back for help.

Also at the time I didn't really understand what was happening with my brain and I didn't think I had PTSD, I just thought where I had been in a country where no one spoke english and people were trying to kill me had caused me to have a weird reaction when I came back to the states and that they could give me a pill for a couple of weeks and it would go away.

Like I would actually get upset when they tried to say I had PTSD and would even attack family members when I found out that they had told other people that I had it.

I had seen friends when I was deployed have complete nervous break downs so bad that they got sent home early, and seen other friends sob uncontrollably and eventually commit suicide. This was while I was still in. I saw those people as the ones who had PTSD. To me I just had a weird condition where I was super nervous and having flashbacks all of the time, I didn't think it was PTSD.
