> My parents suggested I look into disability for my Bipolar I w/ psychotic features. I have extensive psychiatric records. What all is involved in the process? And what's the difference between SSI and normal disability? I've worked before, not a lot though. My parents have been gainfully employed forever.

Hi CE,
I'm guessing you've seen these but I'm posting the links just in case. I found information in there that I didn't know.
http://www.ssa.gov/pubs/10029.html and
http://www.ssa.gov/pubs/11000.html about SSI.
I don't know whether or not you really need a lawyer to start the process. I have heard that most people wind up needing one later on. However, if your parents are considering transferring any assets to you they definitely should talk to one first.
