I even had a woman running around for me trying to find the Nutella. (which BTW is fantastic on graham crackers!!)
I started a review of an SSI Disability hearing by the Oversight Committee from last month. I learned that I should probably go around my atty and send in my own info regarding my disease and send my thoughts, including my postings here, directly to the judge with a summation. That means that although I'm in a serious manic phase right now, it might just be helpful to me in the long run.
I have to go to the dentist this morning - just an impression for the future, so no biggie - and when I get back, I am going to work on this piece I started last night for my atty along with the beginnings of what I want to send to the judge.
Wish me luck as I spin rapidly.

TP, I'm in a hypomanic phase myself, so I understand the "good ideas" and abundant activity. However, as a Social Security disability atty myself, I'd urge you to please let your attorney do the work. Worst case scenario, she will fire you if she finds out you've been doing stuff on your own.
What you're doing reminds me of my own client who I feel is a runaway train with trying to co-manage the case. Her activities are potentially detrimental to our winning! Just a word to the wise . . . . Best of luck!
