I recently have been diagnosed with PTSD due to involvement with SwissAir. 13 years later and it finally ( not that I was ever waiting for it ) hit me. I've been in therapy for about a year now and see that I've been suffering from it for the last 13 years and didn't realize...only after a failed marriage and the total withdrawal from any social life did I realize something wasn't right. I've been getting fantastic help and am getting as close to normal that I think I can be. My question is that with the lump sum payout ( I received 10% already ) is that I heard that this is only the first payment. That when I am finally released, not from the military but from the care of my doctors and am of my TCAT, that there is supposed to be another lump sum payout. I would like to talk to the personnel at VAC but one of the issues that I deal with is paranoia and lack of self confidence. I fear that if I inquire that something will go wrong and I'll be denied any payout if it is coming. Has anyone out there dealt with this and getting lump sum payments? I am getting better each day and hope that my confidence will return...thanks in advance for any info....
