Granted
The Board granted a 100 percent disability rating for posttraumatic stress disorder (PTSD) due to the severity, frequency, and duration of the Veteran's symptoms approximating total occupational and social impairment.
The deciding factor: The Veteran's PTSD symptoms, including suicidal ideation, impaired impulse control, difficulty adapting to stressful circumstances, and persistent danger to himself, warranted a 100 percent disability rating.
