Call your local ssa office or at least file an application for disability so they can discuss the requirements with you...usually you have to be disabled or will be disabled for a period of about 12 months or so, and this includes following the doctors orders for taking meds as prescribed....not taking meds that create a disability is not a basis for a disability approval.... You can appeal the decision if you get denied. First they will send you a load of paperwork and you just fill it out and send it in. They ll talk to your doctors and most likely will send you to one of theirs. It s not bad going to one that they refer you to. They just check your ability to concentrate under pressure, memory, vision, and mental status. It is best for you to have a good therapist when you go for this. And make sure that you know how they feel about disability checks. A lot of them aren t too big on getting people started on those. Good luck and I hope everything works out. It s a long process but you can do it. Just hang in there and work with them.
I know here in B.C. there are 2 levels of disability,meaning less money to fall back on when too ill to work.Top level is Persons with Disabilities the second tier is Multiple Barriers to Employment,but both have Medical Coverage and some Dental,but no retraining for either,which makes no sense. Our Federal Govt. one is for severe only.
I have two of three of those as well as terminal cancer and a couple other conditions and still played heck trying to get approved. Talk to your health professionals for their take on it. Good luck!
Only if a person has such extreem Bipolar that it s actually causes then even on medication and therapy not able to work or function in regular society.
Good luck! Sometimes you just have to ask (and ask and ask) They say no and you keep trying!
you should be able to apply,but they might not approve you at first,just keep appealing,or find a lawyer
