Disability approvals are really hard to get, so if your's was approved, you're definitely sick enough, and deserve the help you can get from the gov't. They won't revoke it any time soon.

I just got approved for disability payments (ODSP) in Ontario. My one Dr. had been encouraging me to apply for years, but I resistant, because I "wasn't that sick" and eaked out a living doing freelance accounting and software testing while my MH and addiction got worse. When it became apparent to me that I could no longer support myself, and approached my psychiatrist, his enthusiasm for the idea took me aback. He filled out the forms right away, and I was afraid I might not be approved for just depression and addiction. I got approval in 15 days, with no review date set which means it's indefinite.

Guess I just didn't want to accept it.
