Hello fellow Veterans, DP Veteran Master Coach with Team Champions and today along with fellow Veteran Coach Amy and Jen a licensed trauma therapist and we will be discussing Military Sexual Trauma (MST) and discussing the tolls it takes on veterans and how you can claim a VA disability claim for MST.

What is MST?  “The definition used by the VA comes from Federal law (Title 38 U.S. Code 1720D) and is psychological trauma, which in the judgment of a VA mental health professional, resulted from a physical assault of a sexual nature, battery of a sexual nature, or sexual harassment which occurred while the Veteran was serving on active duty, active duty for training, or inactive duty training.”  Strong emotions: feeling depressed; having intense, sudden emotional responses to things; feeling angry or irritable all the time.  Feelings of numbness: feeling emotionally “flat”; difficulty experiencing emotions like love or happiness.

It is also stated that because a lot of sexual trauma goes unreported, the evidence is accepted from sources that most claims would not allow. Here are some examples of those options:  - Department of Defense sexual assault or harassment reporting forms - Investigative Reports completed during military service - Law enforcement reports - Mental Health Counseling Centers - Hospitals - Requests for transfer to another military duty assignment - Decrease work performance - Unexplained behavior (economic or social) - Sexual dysfunction
