it took me ove 2 years to get a hearing and basically the hearing came down to onset date. once i agreed to move it 7 months later than i had filed i was approved by the alj. The alj was looking at a test i had done on that date that came back positive.

I can understand how you feel, its natural to be aggravated but when you are ready, forget about it and move on. there will be more challenges ahead in life and they keep coming. i wouldnt complain to anyone outside this board, because people are just not going to understand and some of them will think you shouldnt have gotten anything. i find its best just to keep the fact im on disability to myself. its really no one else's business.
