Sounds like your lawyer is trying to squeeze maximum productivity out of a paralegal. "Crazy busy" sounds to me like "stretched too thin." But you've already established the relationship, so probably too late to change.

This is why I encourage applicants to do what I did and hook up with one of those big firms that only does disability. They operate like a factory. No one paralegal has to do everything. One office full of clerks just gathers medical records. Another office puts together the response describing your daily existance. That's actually a good thing for you to do yourself, after reading up on what the SSA needs to hear: concrete detail. You don't just say, "I dissociate." You say, "On March 15, 2016, I tried to enter the Interstate using an exit ramp and found myself facing oncoming traffic. I became very confused as horns were honking at me, and I almost collided with a tour bus." This is where "anecdotal evidence" is most compelling. Only the worker, himself, can know and give these kind of concrete examples of how he could not cope.

You need to paint a portrait of "failure," which people often don't like to do. People want to say, "I was a good employee." Well, then, keep being an employee!" will be the response of the SSA.
