Today I'm going to an appointment with the Office of Social Security Disability. I hope to convince them that I have a debilitating mental disorder so that I will qualify for $1260.00 a month and medical benifits for the rest of my life or until I'm not "crazy" anymore. Am I crazy? Well, my shrink says I am. What are my symptoms? Well for one thing, I often ask for help from an invisible being whom I have never seen and who has special magical powers.I believe that he gave me life and can take it away any time he wants if I somehow displease him. If thats not crazy I don't know what is. (Oh yeah...and I read and write poetry...Theres the kicker!Give the man his money.)

Please pardon the intrusion here Hal...I start twitching if I don't have a go at the lady when the urge arises

Then only thing sound about me is my mind... everything else is falling apart like a junk yard car.
Hal, I wish you the best of luck.. I've tried to get on disablity for years and never could, but then again I was married and being supported so tuff titty to this kitty was their reply. If it doesn't look like it is going well .. grab a lawyer who does this, it will really help. But don't do it unless you get turned down first.. you do have to pay them out of your settlement.
then again maybe I am loony too... I know there is this invisible guy who runs things.... I also believe he hates me and is out to get me... or am I just paranoid?

Er um ...can I just take your opening line here Doc and open it up for debate???
Paleeeeeze... the most beneficial thing I have had going for me with my shrink is the fact that I hang out with L.O.O.N.s on AP and converse with them and even worse still try to write crazy poems just to make them express Liquid Out Of their Noses first thing in the morning (any time of day actually).
Hint for successful application for you dear friend...take copies of your Questionaires and Sales Pitches with you and just let them read and decide.
Oh yeah Stop being Paranoid about the invisible dude...he is on holidays for a month

Good luck to ya
How funny! It has been suggested that I suffer from major depression, borderline personality disorder, OCD, and even that I may be an indigo child(and yes, that was from a therapist). I have been to a few therapists and they think I have something to start with, then the longer I work with them, the less they think I am nutts. I give up. It appears that I was just born a lemon.
Good luck with the SSA. I hear that they are not so easy to work with. I have seen those attorneys that take cases on and do not expect any payment until you win the case and get back pay. Who knows? Well, good luck anyways. -
This is disgusting actually. I mean, those people thinking you are crazy for having beliefs that many Christians and other people of other faiths share. I don't share them myself but I sort of believe in mental telepathy and I have to keep that pretty quiet, considering that |am bi polar. I remember very vividly sitting in my psycho-therapist's office, going though the questions that are asked when you are applying for a disability pension. It was depressing and I got a bit angry because I've tried and tried to be positive! But I need the money.
Good luck. "Reading" as a symptom! I got the impression that having a messy apartment could be a symptom too.
Anyway, just take the money and run.
