Partly granted
The Board granted service connection for chronic adjustment disorder with mixed anxiety and depressed mood but denied service connection for vertigo as secondary to tinnitus.
The deciding factor: The Veteran's current psychiatric condition was found to be related to his military experience, while the evidence did not support a finding that his vertigo was caused or aggravated by his tinnitus, which is not currently service-connected.
