MDJunction to me

nvrsubtle"Not having any local Bipolar support groups where I live, MDJuntion has given me a place in which people understand what I am going through and has given me a new outlook on life with support that is real and good. Without
the support that I receive from MDJunction, I would be wandering through
life with no one who understands me. I owe so much to MDJunction for giving
me a life line to help get me through the toughest times.

Hey everyone,

I was just thinking wouldn't it be nice if there was a definitive test to say you are disabled. Especially for those suffering from a mental disability since those are often harder to prove than a physical one.

Maybe a blood, pee or even a DNA test.Blink

My main leadership role is to listen, encourage, and keep the peace....It isn't to give medical or legal advice...Please note...I am not a Doctor...nor an expert...I am here for the same reason all of you are...to receive and give encouragement.

I did not know that. I feel really cheated by what I my documentation and tests are when listening to some of the rest of you.

you will be fine 1% end up with records such as mri's and that is due to the fact they had to get them for other reasons. Dont feel cheated at all you have a good case just read the advice on here and other sites today and tonigh and go for it.
