I'll run down both of these avenues! I was intimidated by the 4138 upon seeing your suggestion, but my MSC has since said it would be a viable option to address the inaccuracies so I think I will try to do that as well. Would you suggest any particular format? Is simply stating the section and...

My military psychologist is the one who referred me for MEB/wrote my NARSUM -- would this individual and/or my psychiatrist be the folks I'd request a DBQ from? I do see an off-base counselor as well, but I'm not sure they would meet the necessary qualification to be able to write about my...

Hey there! I recently had a Psych C&P exam with VES and the assessment became available on TOL, so I reviewed it and was completely flabbergasted with how wrong it was. It basically contradicted four years of mental health treatment, and many things I specifically verbalized were contradicted...

Tactical communicator supporting warfare training - and no. I am unable to arm or participate in exercises.

That's helpful! I was provided a flowchart infographic of the timeline, but of course it wasn't very detailed. It just went "CIS -> Found fit/unfit -> RTD/MEB" and I've heard the term IRILO thrown around but wasn't sure where it fit into the larger picture. All the case timelines I've combed...

I haven't heard of this being an option. Unfortunately I'm in a minimally manned (middle manager) position with a lot of responsibility and unsupportive leadership, so I'm not sure how I can justify not doing my job - even when it's destroying me as a person and causing additional health...

I would be submitting the "pregnancy separation" option and ideally be out-processing within 3 months - I have no desire to stay in up to/past the birth. I've unfortunately had consecutive miscarriages, and stress is playing a large role in this decision, because I'd prefer to avoid another late...

Hi there. I'm not too far into the process of a med board for mental health conditions (GAD, ADHD, PTSD) and am at first trimester in a pregnancy as well. I am having an extremely difficult time sustaining job performance for a number of mental and physical reasons, and was wondering if anybody...
