News by Frank Chung 3rd May 2021 11:01 AM An Afghanistan war veteran who suffers from severe depression and PTSD has opened up about the bureaucratic, malicious compensation claims process that, for too many of Australia s war heroes, is often the final straw. Sometimes, as he found out, it can come down to a single word in a psychiatrist s report, or a single point on an assessment scale. From the point of view of veterans - who are often struggling to adjust to post-service life while nursing battered bodies and mental scars - the process can be agonisingly slow, convoluted, and at times almost Kafkaesque.
