I am on SSI and SSD, since 1986. I am considered disabled for life. I am alone in the daytime but my son is home alot with me too, as he has some mental issues and is trying to get on SSD too. I took up flute lessons recently, but am finding it difficult. my teacher is very understanding and my husband drives to work and take us to our doctor appointments and such. It IS lonely and I'm afraid of alot of things that go on in my head in the daytime as i am schitzophrenic and GAD, among other disorders.This makes me socially isolated too. We live in a small Bay are near the beach, but because i cant walk too far, i can't even go there. I do like to sit in my yard and plan on practicing flute outside in the summer. We have fires in our firepit outdoors.
