The system has fucked me so often that its now expected.

Spent my entire working life as a healthcare professional serving the community of borough park #Brooklyn and paying into the system and after having a mental breakdown I have been denied three times over the course of 8 or so years for social security disability.

I am done with this country.

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.

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?

If you receive SSDI or SSI, you should request a BPQY every year but many people don’t know it exists.

Learn why requesting a BPQY before 2026 can help protect your benefits and avoid overpayments.
