Denied
The Board denied service connection for insomnia as the Veteran does not have a diagnosis of chronic insomnia independent of her service-connected major depressive disorder.
The deciding factor: Insomnia was found to be subsumed in the Veteran's service-connected major depressive disorder, and thus no additional diagnosis is warranted.
