Anxiety Board decisions

The appeal is remanded to the RO for additional development, including obtaining SSA records and VA treatment records.

The veteran withdrew his appeal for service connection for any psychiatric disability, and the Board dismissed the appeal.

The Board denied service connection for psychiatric disorders and a right shoulder disorder as they were not related to any aspect of the Veteran's service.

The Board denied an initial evaluation in excess of 30 percent disabling for the Veteran's anxiety disorder, as the evidence did not support a higher rating based on the symptoms and GAF scores provided.

The Board denied the Veteran's claims for service connection for an anxiety disorder, PTSD, and alcohol abuse as there was no competent evidence linking these conditions to his military service. The claim for TDIU was also denied as service connection was not in effect for any disability.

The appeal is remanded to the RO for further development, including verification of claimed stressors and a possible VA psychiatric examination.

The Board denied the Veteran's claim for service connection for anxiety neurosis, as it is already rated as part of his service-connected PTSD.

The Board found that new and material evidence was not submitted to reopen the claim for service connection for anxiety and depression.

The Board finds that service connection for a mood disorder and anxiety disorder is warranted based on the evidence showing that these conditions are related to service.

The Board granted service connection for generalized anxiety disorder, claimed as depression, resolving all reasonable doubt in favor of the veteran.

The appeal is remanded for further development and readjudication due to the need for additional medical examinations.

The Board denied the Veteran's request to reopen previously denied claims for service connection for a psychiatric disorder, a gastrointestinal disorder, a genitourinary disorder, residuals of gunpowder burns of the eyes, a left eye scar, conjunctivitis, and bilateral pterygia.

The Veteran's anxiety disorder with depressive and paranoid features is totally disabling, warranting a 100 percent rating. The claim for TDIU was denied as the service-connected disability already warrants a total schedular rating.

The Board denied service connection for anxiety disorder, depressive disorder, maxillary sinusitis, and a deviated nasal septum as there was no evidence of an in-service injury or disease that led to the current disabilities.

The appellant's anxiety disorder is not shown to be more than 30 percent disabling, and the evidence does not support a higher initial evaluation.

The Board denied the veteran's claims for service connection for a psychiatric disability, headaches due to head trauma, and a chipped tooth due to dental trauma as there was no evidence of an acquired psychiatric disorder, chronic headache disorder, or dental condition resulting from combat wounds or other trauma during active military service.

The veteran's initial evaluation for panic disorder with agoraphobia and generalized anxiety was denied as the evidence did not support a rating in excess of 50 percent.

The Board granted service connection for an acquired psychiatric disorder, diagnosed as adjustment disorder with depressed mood and anxiety.

The Veteran's service-connected psychiatric disorder, including depressive neurosis with anxiety features in remission, is not manifested by more than occupational and social impairment with occasional decrease in work efficiency and intermittent inability to perform occupational tasks (although generally functioning satisfactorily, with routine behavior, self-care, and conversation normal).

The Board granted service connection for an anxiety disorder, but denied service connection for hypertension, a skin disability, and malaria.
