SO now I'm just wondering what I will get monthly and is it based on what I payed in, or is everyone cut the same amount or what? I dunno.

I had been approved for disability benefits for depression. After 9 yrs of recieving benefits, they terminated this year following a continuing disability review involving a 10 min. psych exam from one of the social security docs although he stated I still suffer from major depressive disorder. I'm curious on what basis they approved you. Meaning, how were you able to support your claim. It seems at least in California since the state is constantly broke they will find any reason to deny benefits.
