Granted
The Veteran's service-connected acquired psychiatric disorder has been rated at a 70 percent disability rating, as the evidence shows occupational and social impairment with deficiencies in most areas.
The deciding factor: The Board found that the symptoms of the Veteran's service-connected acquired psychiatric disorder warranted a 70 percent disability rating based on the frequency, severity, and duration of psychiatric symptoms, including suicidal ideation and difficulty adapting to stressful circumstances.
