The evidence gap
Why Depression & Anxiety claims stall in South Carolina
Depression and anxiety are frequently service-connected on a secondary basis: chronic pain, disfigurement, sleep disruption, and functional loss from an already service-connected condition are well-documented causes of mood disorder. These claims are commonly missed because veterans file only for the physical condition.
What the VA requires
- A current diagnosis meeting DSM-5 criteria
- An in-service event or an established service-connected condition
- A medical opinion explaining causation or aggravation
- Documentation of occupational and social impairment
How we help South Carolina veterans

- Impairment documentation written to the rating criteria
