Hi (lol, who says that).

If you have run around these threads, my name has came around at times.

My question is simple, but hard at the same time.

***

What are the steps for me to go on disability with a TBI/Psych problem?

My Monday psychologist (I have a Monday and Tuesday one) thinks it may be a good idea but thinks the money I will have will not meet my requirements (hence, says I could only earn 800$ on top of SSI), but I make almost 60,000 now a year, so that 800$ with disability will not pay rent in NYC.

I don't want something to happen at my job however I am so close to imploding. My paranoia is everywhere, but I have to act normal to keep job.

Perfect world, I would get enough to survive, and I could volunteer to help others and go to daily rehab, but I cannot figure out how to do that.

If I don't act normal, and just deflect my bad moments as moments, I can lose my dog, my apartment, my life.... whine whine whine....

So, what do I do, are there professionals in NYC I can go to that can help me, or do I just deal with it until (or if) I cannot anymore?
