bipolar dysfunctions
Can a person with bipolar disorder/manic depression get disability?
I filed for disability in march..with diagnosis of panic disorder, severe depression, diastolic dysfunction, diabetes..was turned down! filed for reconsideration and was diagnosed with Bipolar/manic depression. I do not go anywhere. I will drive but as far as goin in place i dont go. I havent been in a store, resturant, etc since dec 2008. I stay home and wont even go to my friends or families homes. Im afraid of havin a severe panic attacks. Those do not feel good. I try to avoid them as much as possible. I have had plenty in my sleep. can someone help me?
I understand your panic disorder. I haven’t been able to travel for years because of the horror of panic disorder. You are really bad and you need to get disability. You may have to get some help, since you are not hardly able to leave your home, because this might have to be taken before a Judge in a court of law. I know a lady that has been getting disability for panic disorders for years. She can go around town and just drive a little bit from home. She has been right around her home since 1980. Can’t take vacations. I am fortunate that I have been able to work, but I have had to take jobs below me because of my disability. I have a personality disorder and can’t hardly stand being with people along with panic attacks and constantly being smothered because I have a fear of the sky.. They bother me so bad that I stay to myself most of the time. So I have to work alone, and sometimes I can barely do that. So I do know what you feel and how restricted you are in what you can or can’t do. People who have never suffered with this phobia can not possibly have even an idea. I wish I was normal and could take a trip somewhere. Don’t give up on the disability that you so deserve.
