tj,

More people will see your post if you start your own thread rather than joining one that hasn't been posted to in 2.5 years.

With the repeated mention of a spotty work history due to your disabilities and times you didn't work because of support from your ex's.....Do you have the significant work history required to get SSDI based on your benefit ? Or are you trying to get it based on issues that arose in your childhood ? If the SSA recognized a start date of 2005 for your disability, would that qualify you for SSDI ?
