Granted
The Veteran's service-connected mental health disability alone was of adequate severity to cause him individual unemployability from June 1, 2010, and he is granted a total disability rating based on this condition.
The deciding factor: The Veteran's mental health symptomology limited his ability to work both in his career as a social worker and any other positions due to symptoms such as depression, irritability, poor concentration, and anxiety.
