I've been going through this quagmire for eleven years and during that time I applied for Social Security for the first time. I went through all the tests and at the end spoke with a psychiatrist. I told him with sobbing tears about my childhood of abuse, and I left the building. He followed me to my car and told me that he thought I needed some counseling and that he didn't think my symptoms were psychological. He seemed to believe my symptoms were caused by something environmental. My Neurologist says that my issues are psychological. The point is that the body doctors think that my illness is in my mind and the mind doctor think it's in my body. Just because a doctor can't figure it out, doesn't mean the problem doesn't exist.
