Below a 20 and you need 24 hour supervission ,also if you have kids anything below a 50 you can have your kids taken away or you could be removed from your house if there a other parent there to take care of them ,that happen to me i was removed and drop off at a bus stop and "Bam" was homeless.So well its nice to get a check each month in the mail it comes with a price .You become marked for life (Black listed).

It may be based on the GAF score, I really don't know one way or the other if it is or not. However, do know that my GAF score was 65 when I applied and I was approved for SSDI in 4 q/2 months, with no denial...for mental illness. Also, late last year, I got forms indicating it was time to review my case. My psychologist was asked to answer a couple questions on the form and one of them was GAF score. She put 76. Two weeks later I got a letter saying there was no need to review my case...SSDI continues.
