Denied
The Board denied the Veteran's claims for an earlier effective date for TDIU, DEA benefits, and a finding of TDIU based solely on generalized anxiety disorder.
The deciding factor: The evidence did not establish that the Veteran was unemployable prior to October 21, 2023 due to her service-connected disabilities.
