Cross-posted in Bipolar.

My situation is likely different because I have mental illnesses and multiple medical illnesses. In 2019, I had my medical illnesses added to my SSDI case. My medical illnesses are far more chronic and must be monitored with regular appointments, labs and medications etc.

I was approved for SSDI January 2016 and I have never (knock on wood) had a re-evaluation. I received a letter once or twice saying no re-evaluation needed.
