I have been under dr care sence dec. and I also have a neuroligist.

I dont understand what the difference between SSI and SSD is and how to deside what to file for. I am on my own so this is why I has taken me so long to file for anything. I didnt understand what was realy gong on and what I needed to to take care of myself.
Let the SSA staff help you sort it out. Probably should apply for both and let SSA decide if you meet both or either non-medical requirements.

When you worked for the non-profit, did you pay FICA taxes?
