{"product_id":"9781597973168","title":"The Veteran's PTSD Handbook: How to File and Collect on Claims for Post-Traumatic Stress Disorder","description":"From the author of \u003ci\u003eThe Veteran's Survival Guide, The Veteran's PTSD Handbook\u003c\/i\u003e addresses the obstacles that veterans face when filing for benefits related to post-traumatic stress disorder (PTSD). One of the greatest obstacles, John Roche writes, is establishing a connection between a veteran's service and PTSD.  Because both combat stressors and noncombat stressors can cause PTSD and because of the difficulties in diagnosing the condition, filing a successful claim for benefits based on PTSD is difficult.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eIn the same accessible, self-help style used in \u003ci\u003eThe Veteran's Survival Guide\u003c\/i\u003e, Roche offers detailed instructions on how to prepare a well-grounded claim for veterans' benefits relating to PTSD.  He also discusses the four years he spent helping one veteran establish a \"service connection\" for his PTSD claim with Veterans Affairs.  This book will be required reading for any veteran or veteran's dependent who wishes to obtain his or her well-earned benefits and for those officials of veterans' service organizations who assist veterans with their claims.","brand":"Potomac Books Inc.","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":47165497278704,"sku":"9781597973168","price":17.95,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0737\/7593\/9824\/files\/9781597973168_p0.jpg?v=1763815272","url":"https:\/\/shop-qa.barnesandnoble.com\/products\/9781597973168","provider":"Barnes \u0026 Noble (DEV)","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
