I am somewhat happy, yet somewhat very sad! It makes me own the disability now. Even though I knew what I was applying for (SSDI) it wasn't real until I received the approval, if that makes sense? My "shrink" tells me this is very normal for somebody like myself, who is used to working, being organized, regimented, great work ethic etc....just need time to process the changes! So for now it is 1 day at a time for me. (my issue is my hands..10 bilateral surgeries, so it is hard to find jobs that would allow me to not use my hands much or take a bazillion breaks a day!!

good luck with your SSDI also! hopefully you will get some back pay and if so, in time for the Holidays!!
thats what my shrink said to me to after 30yrs and now....
oh p.s im from "Syracuse"

Well Don1956, you are pretty much my neighbor! I'm in Rochester. Strange huh? I am sure as time goes on I will be less emotional about it all, hopefully! I was a government worker doing office, secretarial work, good god, right? Being 41 yrs. old, young whatever...adds to the

I just hope my shrink knows what she is talking about!

Have a great day!!! We are having some great weather here in Rochester lately, how's it been in Syracuse? People think bcuz the 2 cities are so close we share the same weather, but no thanks!! I know in the winter it is like a world apart between Syracuse and Buffalo and we are stuck in the middle!
