A mental health disorder is any emotional condition that impacts mood, thinking, and behavior. For the purposes of a VA mental health rating, the rating agency should consider the frequency, severity, and duration of the psychiatric symptoms. The rating should reflect the occupational and social impairment the mental disorder causes.

The VA rates mental health conditions using the General Rating Formula for Mental Disorders in the Schedule of Ratings. The specific diagnostic code the VA uses depends on the disorder, but all of these conditions have the same rating criteria. Mental health disorders can be rated at 0%, 10%, 30%, 50%, 70%, or 100%, depending on the severity and frequency of the symptoms.

The VA recognizes many disorders, including:
-Trauma disorders like post-traumatic stress disorder (PTSD)
-Mood disorders like depression or bipolar disorder
-Anxiety disorders like anxiety or panic disorder
-Psychotic disorders like schizophrenia
-Substance use disorders like alcohol or drug addiction
