An emotional Army veteran expressed his deep-rooted frustrations with attempting to get consistent mental health from the Department of Veterans Affairs in a TikTok video that went viral.
Retired Army Sgt. Joe Cantasano shared a video on May 17 detailing how the VA failed to provide him with consistent mental health care. Cantasano has had to endure a constant change of mental health providers – which has left him exasperated.
"Seven times over the course of the last f***ing six years dude, the VA has continued to let me down," a tearful Cantasano said on video. "I just want some f***ing continuity of care with mental health providers. What the f***?"
Cantasano said that his doctors "kept quitting" or the health network switched which health care professionals were available.
