Here is my list of catch 22's:
When applying for disability, if you are a recovering alcoholic, make sure that you go to AA meetings and don't drink cuz that may hurt your case. However, if you do go to aa, and don't drink, that will show that you are able bodied and don't need disability.
Make sure you are doing all the doctors tell you, so you are not at risk for appearing non-compliant. However, if you what is suggested, and show some improvement because of it, then you are lying about being disabled. So you basically have to not go to treatment or follow the doctors orders so you can get worse again, but then you are refusing treatment, so that disqualifies you rite there.
Don't do anything you need to do, like clean up your bathroom, or actually go shopping, because that will show that youre self-sufficient, and you don't need disability. But, if you don't do anything, that could appear as if you are non-compliant or refusing treatment.
Don't do anything like go to church, or anything that requires you to be outside of your house, otherwise you will appear that you have a social life, therefore must be lying about your disability. But, if you do isolate yourself, youre being non-compliant.
Don't take your meds if they help you, because then you are improving and therefore, lying about your disability. But if you don't take them, then you are non-compliant. The same goes for your doctor appointments.
Don't do any kind of physical exercise no matter what, because then you are not really disabled. But if your doctor tells you to and you don't, then you are non-compliant.
Don't ever have a good day, because "real" disabled people do not have good days; but don't have a bad day, either, because that will show defiance and non-compliance!
