that must be really scary. i have thought many times that disability would be the best option for me, but i haven't had the guts to go through what it takes to get it. i'll be hoping for the best for you. let us know how things turn out.

peace.

yes i would love to hear how you make out, i plann on taking ymyson down to apply for it as well, he needs something and i know for a fact he deserves disabilty, it may be hard to explain to some people but i live with my son and i know exactly how he is and unfortunatly i doubt he can hold down a steady full time job, it just would be way to much for him. it probaly sounds like i dont have alot of confidence in my son but its just a fact , and he needs some kind of help cause i am struggling majorly to support him and me, he is 20 yrs old right now and i just dont know what to do anymore. My father dont understand he says my son needs to get a joband help me out a little, but my mother on the other hand understands and she argues with my father that my son wont be able to hold down a job , for god sakes sometimes he sleeps 19 hours. well anyway please let me know how you make out with it!

From what i understand it can take like 3 months to receive it and you are not supposed to work while waiting which is impossible for me.
