I think it is normal that they review disability every few years just to see how you're doing.
I'm sorry you're not able to hold a job due to your anger. My anger is a relatively new development. I have a job but it's incredibly hard. I can't go on disability though. I'm the primary income for my family.
But, just because you don't have a job doesn't mean you're worthless or not living up to your potential. Do you have any creative hobbies or anything? Like painting, music, writing? There is a lot that you can do that is meaningful. If not, maybe you can volunteer at something very part time. Like a soup kitchen a couple times a month?
Our society puts so much emphasis on having a job as this life defining thing. But really it isn't. Family, friends, hobbies, living life is what life is all about. Not sitting at some desk. Money is an imaginary thing that society has made the most important thing in the world. But it only has value because we deem that it has value. If society collapsed tomorrow, money would be the most useless thing. It's not food, water, or shelter. Even gold only has value because someone hundreds of years ago thought it was pretty.
You can define your own life however you want.
