Denied
The Board denied service connection for an anxiety disorder as there was no evidence of a diagnosis of an anxiety disorder during the pendency or proximate to the filing of the claim.
The deciding factor: The weight of the available evidence is persuasively against a finding that the Veteran had a diagnosis of an anxiety disorder pursuant to the DSM-5 at any time during the pendency or proximate to the filing of his claim.
