Default sdi new jersey question

My wife was speaking to social security the other day about my application for benefits and she was told the would need me to see their doctor for an exam. I was wondering what kind of exam ? It is my cognitive issues which make my doctors and myself feel it would be unsafe for me to return to work. I was not aware of the deficit until my neurological evaluation. Later in therapy I clearly experience the problem when doing logic problems or things involving organizational skills. These tasks can leave me mentaly fatigued for days afterwords. My concern is a physical exam or casual conversation would probably show no problem. It is only when the specific area of my brain is tasked I kinda fall apart.
I would greatly appreciate any insight into this as I like everyone else am going thru life changing problems right now.

Based on what you have said, there is no way we can help you determine what kind of exam you will have to take. You will have to just wait and see.

I suffer from major depressive disorder and bipolar disorder and I was sent to both a physical exam and a psychological exam.

Your wife didn't ask? Only your case worker would know the answer to your question.
