Oh my goodness Matthew...I so now how you feel. I have mental disorders, OCD included and my mom minimizes it constantly. I don't know if she is in denial or what. The other day I went to the back dr to talk about my upcoming surgery and she asked the dr, "she could wait much longer than a month for the surgery right?" Luckily my back probs are not part of my disabilities..well, my back probs disable me, but it was not a chief complaint when I applied.
Good luck and hang in there!
