Thank you, AuDHD. I have several years until my Social Security Disability Income comes up for review, since I'm not yet of the age to exit the program and become truly retired.

But my lovely brain has decided, day and night, it's time to script it up and consider all the possibilities, including what will happen if I am (incorrectly) judged suitable for the job market.

In less than a year, Trump and #Republicans #GOP erased 12 years of solvency for the trust fund that pays for #Medicare Part A.

They want to privatize it, along with #SocialSecurity and #disabled #SSDI and enrich themselves and their #criminal pals even more.

The CBO estimates that benefit reductions would start at 8% in 2040 and steadily climb to a 10% cut by 2056.

Idk what state this person is in (and it matters because I think the state does the initial medical review) but I also thinks it helps to go without a lawyer until you need an appeal. I was too sick (not covid, but MECFS) to do all the paperwork to apply so I used a lawyer and it didn’t help at all. They sent me their paperwork which wasn’t much less than than the SSAs & since they only get paid from backpay it’s in their best interest if I don’t get approved immediately so that there’s more back pay.

Anyone here have a #SSDI #SSI Psych CE? I have one in just under 4 hours, Any advice?

My psychiatrist and therapist (and I) don’t think there’s any clinical need for it, so I’m mentally seeing it like a social security interview masquerading as a mental health appt? Is that my best MO?
