Also I am moving in a few weeks...anyone know who to contact about making sure they have my correct info?

In the past three years I have had 8 inpatient psych hospitalizations. I'm in school and doing well there...but it's like every other aspect of my life is crippled by my depression. Even school is at times...but I always seem to manage to get it done on time and do it well. Who knows if I will qualify...wish I would hurry up and get some answers.
I could be wrong, but attending school might count against you for disability. It may show you have the capacity to regularly drive, schedule, and partake in a classroom. I just know if a person is on unemployment or working they will be denied bc it shows they're willing and able to get a job. There was a member on here who was denied bc she regularly attended AA mtgs and something else maybe church or volunteering.
