I imagine that it would depend on where you are applying for it. If you want to apply for disability familiarize yourself with the procedure. Learn from the experience of others. My experience getting disability was probably different from others’. The first time I applied my case manager took me to the dhs building and put my application in. In the U.S. that first application is routinely denied. The second time they applied for disability for me I was in a mental hospital in Tennessee. They granted my application without any kind of a hearing. It was a huge relief to get it. If it wasn’t for disability I probably would be on the street, eating out of trash cans.

The trump administration is making it legal for the government to check people’s facebook profiles and determine if they are really disabled.

If I move back to America I might have to get on disability again. I can manage to support myself living in Asia.

So you are in remission?

It various from country to country. I’m sure greece is way different than USA. Maybe there are stricter standards or something. Maybe your doctor is just an ■■■■■■■. You seem very sick from talking with you and reading your posts, yet you are able enough to get tattoos and stuff, and you are very smart. You are college educated, right? That might go against you. I’ve been hospitalized 17 times in 8 years and I think you said you were never hospitalized. Maybe get a second opinion and try inpatient. I think your psychiatrist is giving you too much meds or is experimenting on you but that’s just my opinion. Maybe you need those high doses, I don’t know. If it was me, I would try clozaril because I would be worried about taking that much medication.
