Denied
The Board denied a higher disability rating for the Veteran's service-connected PTSD with unspecified depressive disorder and also denied entitlement to TDIU.
The deciding factor: The evidence did not show that the Veteran's symptoms more closely approximated total occupational and social impairment, or that he was unable to secure or follow a substantially gainful occupation as a result of his service-connected disabilities.
