After that, she attempted suicide and was discharged, diagnosed with borderline personality disorder -- an ailment she says she did not have. Finally, after decades, Moore won 70% compensation for the post-traumatic stress disorder, known as PTSD, and depression that had made her unemployable. "This process took me 23 years to resolve, and I am one of the fortunate ones," Moore told a House Veterans Affairs subcommittee Wednesday. "It should not be this way." |
