Default Question on Disability Application

Hello everyone,

This is for those who have already applied for SSDI. I posted this Q on the SS Forum yesterday but thought I'd reach out here too. The SS Forum has helped a lot but I am way overwhelmed trying to find all the info I need while filling out my application. The application alone overwhelms me and I find it challenging to search through all the threads for info.

I am currently on the "Provide Disability Information" section of the online app. My question is that at this point, what else should I put in the "remarks" section other than specific info that needs further explanation from earlier questions? Is there anything else that would be helpful to say? So far I have only listed my additional symptoms/conditions that wouldn't fit in the main part of the app.

Thanks to all who read/respond!

My story in a nutshell:
Wife, mother of 4 and new teacher. Have had a few childhood knocks, snowboard falls and 2 major MVAs.

Hit top of my head pretty hard on a cabinet door in July, 2014, then our old pantry door broke off its hinge and hit me in the left temple on Sept. 21st, 2014. Maybe my 8th or 9th concussion. Apparently, one knock too many.

Currently dealing with most of the "normal" PCS symptoms. I'm trying to heal and get back to a normal life and my teaching job.

Things are far too bright and noisy everywhere. I yearn for a good night's sleep.

Undergoing cognitive and vestibular therapy. Hopeful for great progress and healing!
