Loretta, Thank you so much for such an open and informative post. Glad to hear that you are moving to a more friendly RSD house, I thankfully already lived in a one story house and thank God that I do everyday. Best of luck on the SSDI, but be aware that it may take some time, I was initially denied, and then waited two years for a hearing and had to have a lawyer assist with the process. My daughter has an advanced degree in social work and was well versed in how to complete the paper work and that was a great help. She had also attended many hearings and was able to tell me what to expect, so if you know a social worker, that may be a good source to tap, especially one who works with severe mental illnesses. Glad to hear from you again, I have missed yourr posts and was wondering about you, Lisa
