You had said in another thread that your neuropsych eval came out with no illnesses/disorders. What is your SSDI based on? Did you get another assessment?

The SSDI idea was from last year when I had Bipolar I. The neuropsych assessment came back with no Axis I, but it can be both due to right medications or no underlying illness. So it is not decisive. The neuropsych came back with personality traits - self-defeating, paranoid, and dependent - but without full-blown personality disorder, but when we looked at the criteria for the self-defeating PD with the T, I fully meet them. I would say, "meet and exceed". We then looked at the criteria for dependent PD with the p-doc and I do not meet them but do have traits. Not a full blown dependent PD. I myself looked at the paranoid and I do not recognize any of them at all, so I have no idea why the assessment revealed them. I will talk to the T about it.
I will no longer file for SSDI.
