It also makes it very hard to be in public, while having to be productive, or when having to eat dinner with family or friends. The extreme anxiety is the road that nobody should be traveling down, and I refuse to sell tickets.

I have yet to file for SSDI, but I guess based upon your time with it, I should file like yesterday. My only concern with filing is I don't have enough doctor evidence. My doctor here only diagnosed me bipolar, and I've only seen him probably six times. In which, I doubt that will be enough evidence.

I just don't like it how social security makes it so hard on the ones that really are disabled.
