I have a friend from my support group with bipolar & she saw their doc & got accepted right away. I've heard from many others that that is not the norm--that they will turn you down several times to make you go away. After they turn you down, I was told to get a lawyer who specializes in this. Also, agree with the others to tell how your condition is debilitating & renders you unable to work. Give specifics. Hospitalizations, episodes, therapy needed, etc. Good luck. It's a shame they make you so stressed out about these things & make you jump through all kinds of hoops.--Suzy
