Today marks 4 months since my SSDI renewal was mailed in. I've not heard anything. I don't remember it ever taking more than 6 weeks to hear back from a short form renewal. I'm scared with all the craziness in the government that it will just be sitting somewhere and never be addressed. Or that somehow I'll be blamed for the delay. I just fear they'll do anything to remove benefits. I'm scared it will happen no matter what but as long as this is pending I feel less protected. And I wouldn't feel safe even if I had my approval.


If I lose benefits I don't know how I'll survive. I get sick thinking about it. I need to go to the social security office and see if they can give me an estimated date that I'll know by but that is so stressful too and they probably can't. And there's nothing to say that if my benefits are approved that the orange guy won't take them away.
