goldenwillow,

Welcome to NeuroTalk.

I am surprised you have not applied for SSDI. It sounds like you would qualify.

An NPA would be good. Try not to think of it as test. It is not quantifying you as a person. It is quantifying your injury and how it has effected you. There is a not a need to feel like you need to pass the test.

Think of it as a form of medical lab work/ x-rays, etc. that just uses your performance on a variety of tasks to look inside your brain.
