Let me ask you this (everyone): should I just do a narrative like a list of symptoms, things I cannot do, things that freak me out, etc? Their questions are (it seems to me) intentionally vague, so that I don't feel like I've ever really answered what they asked of me. Like these are the new questions I have to answer for this appeal:
Describe in detail the changes to your condition since you last completed a disability report. 1000 characters maximum response. What date did these changes begin?
Describe in detail your new physical or mental limitations since you last completed a disability report. 1000 char max. When did they begin?
How have your daily activities changed since you last completed the report? Ex: need assistance with personal needs, reading, watching tv, visiting friends and relatives, driving a car or catching a bus...etc.
Keeping these answers to 1000 chars is really hard for me, I feel like this seriously limits my ability to answer these questions fully. Its not like I have a cut off arm or something and I can say, well, because my arm is gone, I cannot pick my nose (or whatever, I am not making fun, just trying to think of a physical ailment that may be more along the lines of what they are looking for when they approve claims). How on earth do I accurately describe mental disturbances? How do I say that I am so paranoid that I cannot answer the door if a person comes and knocks on it, even if I know the person, because I didn't know they were coming in the first place.
I have some more questions for anyone patient enough to answer me, but I've got to go spend some quality time with my son. I'll write more in a little bit.
