Thanks Cowgirl

The C&P examiner was in her own world, had no interest in my story, she was just going through the

motions and doing her duties for her Fee. I am OK with this, at one time it would of bothered me.

Theres so many others in worst shape then me, and I just hope everything is fair, when it all comes to the end.

My end is near, and I am at peace with all that I have done.

Any opinion are appreciated, and Thank you Cowgirl, you have always been supportive, which means a lot

I was hoping some of the most experience would give their opinion, its so important to me.

Maybe my earlies posts, when I was getting my first set of drugs, alinated them because of what I said.

I am calmer now, and focused in the right direction.

Good to hear from you. Not sure what 'end is near' you mean, ptsd or other - but hope you're ok. Hey its Friday, so take some time off, relax, enjoy a good ole movie, popcorn and soda-pop.

Best to ya'

I went from 30% to 50%, do I have 70% out there lol

I know what is the packet, looking at the DSM IV, I will eventually get 70%, but after the low ball

I will need to go through the increase adn NOD process. You all have taught me well, so I am prepared

Glad that you are feeling better. Perhaps you could repost exactly what issues you want addressed and Members will jump in. The trouble with long posts is sometimes Members kind of drop off.

Just my suggestion.

Thanks Pete, great suggestion

I have had my C&P, getting some great mental health care, the meds took awhile, but seems to be working.

My only Questions 1.Is that Social Workers write up, is it consider a IMO for the raters review.

2. Is there anything I should do to enhance my rating, I have gave then everything they need I believe.

I just hope they read my whole packet, and weigh it against a very laxadative C&P examiner.
