The Board granted service connection for an unspecified anxiety disorder with alcohol use disorder in sustained remission, denied service connection for an acquired psychiatric disorder other than an anxiety disorder or alcohol use disorder (depression and insomnia), and denied service connection for erectile dysfunction.
The deciding factor: The evidence of record did not support a finding that the Veteran had a current diagnosis of an acquired psychiatric disorder other than anxiety or alcohol use disorder, to include depression or insomnia. The Board also found no causal relationship between any such disability and an in-service event or a service-connected disability for erectile dysfunction.
