No misunderstanding here kris... I understood what you meant and I agree with you.

I was only trying to be "proactive" for people who might have been reading this without knowing what was going on... and I didn't even mean to be addressing the emotional or stygmatic side of it... really just the practical aspect. I didn't want someone to read that I was having difficulty getting my doc to sign disability forms and think that in general it was a challenge to get such forms signed. Because in fact it was very easy for me to get the forms signed, apply, and be approved. I didn't want to discourage others from trying or to make them afraid of trying.

It was only after I showed improvement that my doc was reluctant to continue signing... it is not like it was a challenge initially and I didn't want others who may be considering starting the process to think otherwise.
