I'm 100% disabled with VA and on SSDI now. I see so many vets struggling and they don't make it easy to get help. The VA is so short of doctors. I've waited over a year for a GI procedure and all my mental health providers are community care. That means they're in the community and VA pays them. Sounds great but they have to renew every six months and VA isn't quick. Last year I waited three months between psychologist appointments waiting on renewal (I have severe PTSD and depression).
