BTW, refusing to take tests or cooperate in evaluations ordered by SS is considered a sign of malingering, so that would have been just as bad.

That's just it Lit, take away what she said about that test, she firmly believes I have major depressive disorder, which as my attorney says, that's what we were looking for. I have been treated for depression since 1998, but kept working until 2006, because I was missing on average about 60 days a year due to my depression. So for 16 years I have been malingering.
