I have applied for social security disability three times and have been denied all three times. I am depressed, sad and tired of being blamed by my husband. I've been on the INTERNET to see if their were other bipolar's like myself who have had trouble keeping a job, because I was curious to see if this was a characteristic of being bipolar. Does anyone on here have the same issue as I do? I just don't understand why I can't keep a job.
Hi, its me Tait, the initial poster of "I'm bipolar and can't keep a job" thread. I wanted to know if I even stand a chance at getting SSI disability because of my 37 year old age and because I am married? I also want to know if having part time jobs while waiting for SSI disability will affect me getting approved?
