Mr. Ginsberg, I followed all your tips and did exactly what you advised! I won without having to get an attorney! Thank you so very much! I really think the best advice was to take my medical records to my medical examination. I also took the functional capacity paperwork signed by my rhuematologist! The doctor looked at my records and looked up at me and said, "I bet you don't feel very good"! A month later I got a call from SSD and I am getting back pay too! Thank you, Thank you, Thank you!

My case was verbally approved by the judge in open court with instructions that I will receive it in writing 2-3 months. In my case I had a detailed complete medical record. I worked to help my attorney get everything. I had proper tests ran. I had a COUNSELOR. Very simple testimony. Judge was very kind. All I remember is the judge asking me how I got to the hearing like she was amazed. Uber! NONE of my doctors agreed to fill out my attorney’s forms. They all turned their back on me.

I just watched your video and It took some of my anxiety away. I had my appeal hearing in October and I am so worried about it. But, I had four bloodclots in my lungs on two different occasions and three bloodclots in my leg and one in my arm this past June. I beat death three times these past two years and have continued with the therapies to get full function back. I have to keep reminding myself that I am strong, and with the Grace of God and my blood thinners no matter what the outcome of my hearing, I will be fine.

Very goods tips. My work attempts (many of them) show I’m trying different areas, but I am failing each time, even after trying to stick it out for a couple of months at each job. I don’t want to rely on social security, but I’m deteriorating so much, I’m pretty much at the point where I need to go to them. That takes away from my self-confidence in that I can’t properly sustain myself and be independent. I feel like a loser because of it.

Interesting as I'm currently awaiting a decision on SSDI after applying last summer. Worker's Comp case adjudicated in my favor, receiving a very modest cash settlement. Attorney stated I was a 'shoe in' for SSDI and am eligible for early company pension and early SS later this year. I had hoped to go the full distance (66 years and 4 months - I'm currently 61) but began falling apart prematurely and wasn't taking it seriously until I had to report to an emergency room out of state nearly three years ago while employed. Was out of work for 6.5 months, went back for 3 months, out for 6 weeks, back to work for 3 months when another injury (out of state again!) put me out for good. Retained the services of a Worker's Comp law firm during the six week sabbatical the previous fall. Everything is well documented in the settlement; sent copy to Social Security as requested. Looking forward to the conclusion and the start of my pension as I don't care for the suspense and have no medical insurance of any kind - everything is cash.

Based on his age and the medical condition you describe I think he has a solid claim for disability. SSA cannot, by the way, hold it against him that he is reluctant to undergo surgery. Since SSD is about work capacity, records of missed time from work would also help his claim. I would look at Grid Rule 202.04 as well as some of the sedentary grid rules (see my website www.gridrules.net) as a shortcut to get him approved quickly once he stops working.

I am a 49 year old male who have been diagnosed with mdd and ptsd. I have no family support and all my kids are grown now. I was in the realtistate business for 10 years until I lost it all in the 2008 market crash where I end up losing all my properties and filing bankruptcy in 2012. At that time I went through a dark period in my life where I end up being hospitalized for suicide attempts on two occasions after becoming homeless. I have been turned down on 2 prior occasions and I have a hearing coming up in December. I have now been seeing a psychiatrist for the last 3 - 4 years consistently and taking celexa to nuetualized my depression. When I first was diagnosed with mdd and Ptsd in 2013 I told my psychiatrist that I have experienced with cocaine and alcohol in my past. Since I've been under medication managerment and doing group therapy for the past 4 years I have not used any drugs outside my subscription medication as I have had a drink or two on a occasion to be honest. I have just got my recent medical evalution from a new doctor at the clinic that I have probably seen maybe 3 times who subscribes my celexa for my medication management every 3 months and the reports makes me look like some drug using alcoholic with a attitude problem. I am taken back from this last medical report that they faxed to my Attorney to go into my SSD hearing next month. I am now experiencing servere dispression and anxiety because it seems that this doctor who I've only seen on 3 occasions in the last 4 years have written such a disingenuous report that contradicts all my other documentation that supports my major depression disability. Please let me know what should I do at this point as it is now even harder for me to leave my house.

David, I would speak to your lawyer about this and suggest that he argue to the judge that the damaging report from the doctor be given little or no weight because its conclusions about your drug/alcohol use are inconsistent with the rest of your record.

However, back in November of 2019, I started delivering pizzas 3 hours a day / 4 days a week. Now, Social Security is doing a review on my case. I kind of thought it would trigger a red flag, but thought it would take a few months, but the letter came instantly. My question is, should I be concerned and gat an attorney? I have been well below the SGA limits allowed under the income limits.

The meds help some with energy but the dizziness fatigue and nausea never go away. I don't know what to do. It affects my emotions and I am generally in a depressed state.

My doctor has done all of this, backs me 100%. Had three tier back surgery that failed. This I am assuming should have been approved in handbook. Still at reconsideration level since may they are putting my file on hold? Until after I had my total right hip replacement, they are asking for Hospital Reports. So now I'm confused. I hate being on pain, I hate not contributing to my family, I hate how all oh this has taken its toll on my marriage, my life, my happiness. Why did they put a hold on my case. Was seen by ssdi dr regarding my hip and knee, the doctor stated to me that she doesn't know why they even sent me to her that I'm 100% disabled, had to take xrays as well. Confused, depressed and angry. I've had no money come in since 2016, we spent in premiums and family deductibles (not including medications) roughly 30k dollars, that is a huge strain on my husband. We should still be in honeymoon stage only married 2 years, but I'm always so sad, don't smile etc sorry about my rambling.

Social Security Disability videos but really, would it matter even IF I could prove it substantially at this time? This is all under so much of an overlooked basis due to the fact deniability works in the favor of so many choices that you can say its never happened and most likely have 2/3 good hard workers in the department really trying to help but majority of the time you'll have someone sit there and ask "is this the person applying?" where they say nothing but suddenly either have a change in judgement or double down on a decision. Truth be told that's why I'm trying to apply as a worker in my hometown to help with that, problem is since its (controversially) favoring people/families that are dependent on the system so much for that money they're willing to jump through the hoops for that money to the point if someone is ever questioned, its a simple utilization of deniability. You can say its not there, you can go through your entire life and never experience it so in a way I can't disagree to your opinion, only share mine based off the same descriptions of what I believe factors in your disability benefits. MOST the time its from my VA MEDICAL here in Alaska. Luckily if you go through the others departments you're fine but because half are people faking and yes I rather be off by a couple people than have it not brought to anyone's attention.

Second of all why have ssdi if we're going to be made to go thru all these hoops and bounds. We paid into this system. I shouldn't have to struggle for it. Lastly, we are going through a pandemic. Companies aren't open for business everywhere having huge hiring events. What a screwed up system I swear. I really hope I won my case. The judge hung up and I never heard back from my attorney. It was a phone hearing. Is this normal? This was a law office that advertises heavily on television.

I still can’t clean my house or stand long enough to cook healthy meals, the nutritionist gave me ideas of ways to cook using crock pots and unwavering oven. Will that adversely effect my case??? I’m 61, does that make it harder to get SSDI? I’ve looked for jobs I can do as a physician assistant but all require full days, long hours, and long drive times, I can’t physically do that now.

I don't know what to do. I went too long before applying for disability in 2012, so after THAT case was denied, I applied again, but that was only for SSI. That case was also denied. At that time I was separated from my husband. But now that I have returned to him, I understand that I am no longer eligible for SSI anyway, as his income is "too high" (that's a joke). My illness is classified as clinical depression and phobia. I struggled with alcohol abuse, and was denied because my records showed I had a brief relapse and was hospitalized briefly. I am presently sober 16 months. My questions are: Should I even bother applying again since I'm with my husband? And, after 16 months of sobriety, will that "red flag" hospitalization from 18 months ago cause another denial? I wouldn't bother if it weren't for the fact that my husband is a severe alcoholic who abuses me, and I would like to leave him. I depend completely on him.

Unfortunately, decisions on whether SSA will accept a late filing are somewhat arbitrary and solely within the discretion of the local SSD office.

What if a 53 year old person has medical documentation of his/her disabilities 40% but kept it a secret from their employer because he/she didn't want to get fired and wind up homeless. This person has had excellent attendance up until now. This persons health condition has now worsened. This person also knows it's time to throw in the towel and apply for Disability. If this person would tell their employer the whole truth they would be most likely be fired. This person also has a CDL license and If He/she told the Examining Doctor at their next annual DOT Physical (which is in a week or two) their condition they would lose their CDL license. This person would then be terminated from employment. Would it be better to let the DOT Examining Doctor say that this person is not fit to drive then go to see the Voc Rehab for Adults Dept, show them all their Medical Documentation and see if they will say this person should apply for Disability? I was wondering what they best course of action would be. Do you have any advice or comments for this person?

No but long story short Ive been treated pretty bad. twice. once they went over dates, had to start over..next barely knew my name much less my illness and details of which there are many. I have a complicated issues thing. Lyme disease since 2002, Fibromyalgia, 3 car accidents-rear ends at a stop, w/Neck and Back Problems, Trigeminal Neuralgia (maybe) Newly with Extreme Veretigo Attacks on top of Severe Migraines and Tinnitus maybe Meniueres Disease, then recently they found a rare Tumor on my MRI/CT attached to coratoid artery /jugular vein area as a bonus So I just cant have someone go in there half assed.trying to rattle off my cart full of crazy painful revolving symptoms expecially when 50% of he time my appearance is normal. Im better off trying to explain my illness, symptoms, Its just Hard while Im sick to do it. As you know.. It is wearing on me Physically and Draining.. This is my 1st Judge review Id like to try on my own,.Ive been waiting 3 years. Im thinking I will get one more opportunity to appeal if this end in denial is that correct? If that is correct and I dont come out with a positve result. I would then like to move forward possibly hiring you. However when you say you work with attorneys near me?? what does that mean? Just a referral or people you know. I was wanting more like you of course. Sharp...Im sick, this should be easy, but nothing is easy for me.Please let me know thank you for your time

I'll never tell my doctors I'm applying for disability ever again. Orthopedists seem to be worse than others in that they hate the idea of disability and act offended when you mention it. You'd think you were asking them to pay you disability out of their own damn pocket. I had one write things that hurt my case in my record as a result. They think disability goes against what they're trying to do, get you better, and I think they must take it to mean you're giving up. Be really careful telling your doctor.

Lauren, as I discuss in this video - kzitem.info/news/bejne/uY2EmqqAb3aadpw - medical evidence is increasingly more important than testimony. If you have been receiving regular counseling and/or treatment from a psychologist or psychiatrist, those records will carry more weight than anything you can say. However, you should still practice with your lawyer so that you can prepare yourself to answer the question: why can't you reliably perform a simple, entry-level type of job? Best of luck to you.

I've had seizures my whole life they seemed to get worse as I get older, I'm 27 years old. I might have gaps from the standpoint of not having doctors is this an automatic disqualification? The reason for not having a doctor is because of not being able to afford health insurance due to lack of work. Does that work against me? I moved back with my parents so I could get insurance and resumed seeing a doctor recently, but it doesn't change the fact that I may have big gaps. When I wasn't under insurance every time I had a seizure I would have to go to the ER does that count for something?

Gaps in treatment are not necessarily going to doom your case but at your age you will need strong medical support indicating that your seizures are not controlled by medications and they make it impossible for you to get thru a workday.

Does using medical marijuana count? And the thing is I don't even use it all the time and it does help me to go to sleep maybe once or twice out of the month. I really wish people stop trying to criminalize when I'm trying to get help because there's no sleeping pills that I'm being prescribed.! I don't even know what to do anymore because I'm only seeing my psychiatrist every two and a half 3 months I'm getting prescriptions taking that and then when I had a best friend the claim was you're not even taking your medication so that tells me I didn't do any better and I might even started doing worse on the medications. Society didn't really recognize mental disabilities as much you know yeah I can go to a factory and maybe lift something but will I remember to do the safety stuff will I be able to get out of bed to even get to work it's like with depression you wish for these things but they don't even happen and everybody just thinks you're lazy you got PTSD oh you're just living in the past you should just get over it must be nice if I could just go in and have surgery or something to remove this part of my brain I would instead of having to beg for money at least I'm not homeless anymore

No, what I am saying is that Social Security sees disability as an "either/or" proposition. Either you can work or you cannot. Ongoing part time work muddies the water and most of the time a decision maker (judge or adjudicator) will conclude that someone who can perform on-going part time work could likely perform on-going full time work.

Ssi is for people with disabilities and can’t work so why do people think it’s just for people who don’t want to work? Truth is you can quit your job today and sign up for ssi and you won’t get it, there are people with real disabilities that don’t even get approved and if you do get approved you have to wait at least 2 years until you receive any money so please stop falling for the hype!! No one will go without a job and without money for 2 years just to end up getting $700 a month for the rest of their life because that money will all be spent the first week you get it!!!
