Denied
The Board denied the veteran's claim for a rating higher than 50% for their service-connected unspecified trauma or stressor related disorder. The decision was based on the evidence showing that the veteran's symptoms did not warrant a higher rating.
The deciding factor: The totality of the evidence did not show that the Veteran's suicidal ideation and other symptoms caused occupational and social impairment with deficiencies in most areas.
