Maybe this can help:

I was my oldest son's Rep Payee, That means I took care of his money.

He now holds a job, because he wants too. But at the time, they
didn't think he would be able too.

A doctor of their choice had decided he was unable to work. And had given
him the SSI. So every few years they did a update, by calling me and
asking me questions. About whether he was taking his medication,
going to his doctor appts. And if he was getting the help the doctors
thought he needed. In regards to seeing a psychologist for his anger.

I would answer the questions. He never had to talk to them.

At one point they might have decided to talk to him by sending him
to their psychiatrist again. But it was mainly to see if he was still
unable to hold a job.

But he chose his pattern to go and get a job. And has been able
to be successful. I remember you said. You tried, and couldn't
do it. This is in your record with their office.


I also have a sister that is on SSDI. She has held more than one
part time job, and also got SSDI. She will never be able to hold
a full-time job. For many of the same reason's you can't.

She feels the need to have something to do. So she tries to work
part-time, after 2 to 3 months at the most, she ends up usually
leaving each job. And it doesn't effect her SSDI, it just goes in the
record. Once again her depression and anxiety caused the need to
quit a job.

Hope this especially will help.
