What is the name of your state? Ft Stewart, Ga
So when I came back from Iraq I was diagnosed with PTSD, Adjustment Disorder, Antisocial Disorder and I was told to wait a few months first too see if it gets better over time. If it didn't then I would be given therapy and anti depressants. Well it's been getting worse everyday and now I'm at the point where I'm just having too many problems with my NCOs and now the law because of my problems. Constant nightmares from watching my platoon leader get killed by a suicide car bomber hitting her humvee 19Sep06, god rest her soul, and the injured gunner I patched up, my attitude, temper, helplessness, feeling like I'm about to die, feeling scared, no energy or feeling of doing things I used to love...etc the whole PTSD/depressiion symptons.
The therapist was talking about the possiblity of discharging me for PTSD. Which scares me a little. I've been doing a lot of research about this and read a lot of articles of soldiers in the Army such as Ft Carson not getting the care they need and not given the right discharges either. I read that soldiers discharged with PTSD should get a Honarble discharge or General under honarable conditions.
But I'm scared if I get discharged with PTSD even with a honable discharge I wont be able to get a law enforcement job on the civilian side. Will PTSD be on the paperwork? Or does it not matter at all as long as the discharge is honarble? If I can't get a law enforcement just when I get out because of this I rather stay in then for the year and 8 months I got left.
