I just checked and SSDI went up $200 starting Dec. 3.
Was hoping it would be more. Still struggling with bills.

That’s really nice! I get a 2% increase this month. Way less but I’ll take it.

Mine went up about $200 also. I got my yearly statement also. I made $69,000 last year working. That was the best since I got sick with schizophrenia except when I was still in the Marines.
Haven’t held a job this year but I have an interview on Tuesday. SGA went up to $1450 or so. Won’t earn that much obviously but some is better than nothing.

Thanks for asking @Joker . I am doing OK.
Tried socializing, felt threat, became agitated then outright aggressive and hostile with my brother-in-law. Socializing and people are a problem for me. Got a persistent delusion about a few family members that I have insight to but can’t shake.
I am back on case management (weekly) and getting increased therapy (every 2 weeks) so been busy journaling and making progress with self care and home care.
I been busy working on progress, Being offline in general has been good. I been walking much more and spending more time with my dogs.
I do miss the forum and hope to be active more regularly.
@TheFountainPen man, is that enough to offset the cost of inflation?

It’s every time in 2% increments and we’ve already had a couple of them. So it covers most of it.
