disabled due to depression
Hello old newbie here
I was wondering if anyone here receives workers comp disability for depression.I know the laws vary state to state.Im in texas.I was awarded pshyc..I was given a low rating on impairment rating .Since then my condition has worsened.I have tos and rsd.I have not worked since injury 2000.Social secuity says I do not have enough quarters.To be eligible for
ssi you have to be low income.My husband made too much.I applied for vocational rehab 4 yrs ago and was told they based on income ( declined me).
I reapplied 06 and they are willing to help.After testing with rehab they tell me I need help with depression before I can go forward.Due to heavy meds for pain I do not feel like I can retrain. Voc rehab felt so too.So ...my question is has anyone here
ran into this problem?I would think wc would be resposible.But due to low impairment they are not.
