I wrote explicitly about me and everything that happens to me, as did my t/pdoc (who strongly believes I should be on disability) during my initial application and my appeal. I have a terrible work history (not being able to stay one place long). I got denied both times. I have a little less than 30 days to do my last, before a judge, appeal. I don't think it has much to do with what you write, or what you pdoc says, its very arbitrary and is decided on a state level by a state worker. So, depending on your state and how willing the people are to try to understand is how its decided. Sorry to sound so pessimistic, I want to be positive, but this has been a devestating and extremely invalidating experience for me. They keep telling me I could be a cashier in this national economy. Whatever, they clearly don't understand what it means to not physically be able to make yourself leave your house.
I'm working on getting the courage up to talk to a lawyer.
