In reply to Social Security Disability for social anxiety?, posted by fuzzymind on December 9, 2002, at 8:18:56
> I remember my former shrink mentioning SSD, I think that is what is is called.It's disability payment, which I could get since my dad has been paying into the social security system for a long time. SHe couldn't tell me how much I could possibly obtain and she said it took a long time to apply. In a therapy session, we started the application by phone to the local social security office, and forms were sent to my house, but I never filled them out. That was a couple of years ago. Anyone here on disability for social anxiety, and how much can you get?

> ThxHi. i'm on ssd because of a nervous breakdown/depression last year. I quess i was a real case cause i applied and got accepted in just 2 months. Since i worked so long, and had a long history of seeing psychs and on lots of medications,i quess thats why i got it so fast. lots of paperwork involved but its worth it if you can get it. and the payment is enough for me to get by on.
