social security disability question


Hi, I was wondering if anyone in New York is on social security disability? I was inquiring about the process although I am looking for a lawyer. I have:

Epilepsy
OCD (years)
Anxiety
Depression

Was in a hospital for mental health due to side effects of drugs. All stuff above is documented from neurologist Doc. Psychiatrists, and regular Doc.

Would I have a problem with getting on it? I have so much anxiety I can barely get through work and missed quite a bit of time lately but have FMLA so ok so far, but it's hard to get through!!! Thank you for any info.

Kim

Hi kimba --

Here's a link with general info:

Aside from that, you may get denied the first time you apply, that seems to be the norm. Just apply again.
