I am very nervous. I hope that things go well. I really don’t have any idea of what to expect my lawyer is going to prep me the day before so that I will be able to well. My nerves have gotten so bad that I am experiencing diarreha and nightmares. I shake like a leaf. Haven’t had to rely on my klonopin so much in my life.
Any last minute advise that might help me? My doctor said that he feels I have a good chance to get it. I am always a pessimist. But I really do believe that God takes care of me and somehow someway I always end up in a good place. It’s just so hard to put my faith into practice this week. I could certainly use some prayers.
When I applied for SSD I made it sound like my worst day happened every day which at the time was almost accurate. Just describe how the sz affects your functioning. Like for me I had a hard time leaving the house, was delusional, and had a hard time having conversations. Just describe your symptoms and go over any hospitalizations you’ve had. Good luck.
SunGirl has it right. My psychiatrist told me to describe my worst day to SS. Because those are the symptoms that you’re dealing with that are disabling.
I also waited 2 years to apply–and had 2 years worth of medical records. That showed that my condition wasn’t going away anytime soon.
I think the thing that helped the most was having my psych write a letter certifying my disability and daily functional limitations. It was very detailed about how I needed assistance with activities of daily living.
The best advice I can give you is to be VERY thorough with SS.
i do so hope the very best for you…make sure you get s list of everything that is wrong with you—blood pressure,cholesterol…eye site,any physical problems along with all the psych problems that you are enduring…
you can only do what you can do…
