I am trying to wrap my head around the VA and PTSD treatments. I take meds that make me feel like crap. Instead of the VA trying to help me get better I continue to stay on meds. That is why I have left the VA Mental Health program for a place in my community. I struggle to just to exist and I just want to live my life with my family getting the best of me not the worst. I continually pay out of pocket for my Mental Health care because the VA does recognize their certifications. However, they are great at what they do so disheartening to say the least. The next is the Stellate Ganglion Block procedure. I get this every year and the VA or insurance does not cover it. It works and again I pay out of pocket that I am 100% service connected for. I am frustrated and just not sure if the VA if doing enough for those with true PTSD.
