Need Advice For Non Veteran Friend On Ssi And Other Programs

ptsd Social Security Approved On Reconsideration In 8 Days
I have read more on this website than any other, Ive tried to help others with the things that I have knowledge with. And guess what, knowledge is power... that and alot of anger management/ptsd meetings/medications... At any rate I emailed Mr. Bob Goodlatte, who is my representative after initial denial and explained the situation, sent very curt emails to Social Security and filed for reconsideration on Sept 11th I believe, and today I was told about a direct deposit. I cant thank HADIT enough, also cant thank my Republican representative enough, never thought Id say that, but times are changing.

ptsd Tdiu Aprroved Ssd Denied What Is Going On And What Do I Need To Do
Got my TDIU approved back in feb 2010, now the letter comes back from SSD saying that is okay for me to work in a limited fashion that is considered gainful employment so i was denied? WTF is this? I mean really? the VA flat out says severe ptsd, intermittent explosive disorder, major depression, paranoia, anger and violence issues along with extensive history of very poor impulse control that I am a liability in any workplace. Basically my mindset does not allow me to deal with people totally strange to me at all anymore, and only friends and family to a certain degree for safeties sake, if I dont want to talk to them and if they keep pushing the issue with me, or a …
