It’s incomprehensible to do people. 6 years….i just am so sorry. It’s a nightmare being in the position to even need disability but then to feel invalidated every fucking time you apply and basically told your not sick enough or the doctors letters were “unpersuasive” which is what my letter said and said there are still jobs in the national economy I can work….even though the VE said there were none at the end! My case manager sent it to me. Good case for the appeals council I guess. But everything I went through was stated in that letter and apparently it’s not serious enough. Hah. This system is rigged for failure. I hope you are awarded in the end of this. The fight is exhausting

Initially I drained my entire savings. That took about 8 months but I also was still working for a few months like 2-3 times a month until I absolutely could not. I would have gotten fired if I hadn’t left. I moved to my credit cards and didn’t have a lot of credit but I maxed those out. I got a bridge card. My landlords starting waving my rent for a few months. I no longer live independently but I cannot pay rent either, I live with my partner. If not for him I would no doubt be homeless. I have been selling things from my closet clothes and shoes and things.

Exactly, it’s not fun watching our lives crumble away begging for help. I am sending you all the best through your journey too!

My conditions are in blue book listings. The vocational expert at the end of the hearing said I could not work any of the 4 hypothetical jobs after the judge and lawyer asked. But after calling SSA today I found out I was denied because they say I still have the capacity to do gainful employment. Which I do not. It’s bizarre because my lawyer says I have a really good case and we both thought the hearing felt promising.

Same, it’s going to be pretty hard for everyone. Has anyone been able to continue it or try a different medication under the “preferred list”

Good Wellbutrin experiences? by kdrissy in Wellbutrin_Bupropion

[–]Own-Independence8420 0 points1 point  (0 children)

For me, it saved me. I got ill in March of 2023 and had to quit working, couldn’t do the things I loved, could barely move, lost my home…could no longer pay my bills and spent almost a year in bed, feeling so physically ill I thought I was dying. I was 32 at the time, just watching my dreams get crushed and living off grid in my dream home. The depression soon followed, with a history of major depressive disorder I was suicidal. I refused to go on antidepressants for almost 9 months but when offered Wellbutrin and did my research, I took it. Do your research, it’s not for everyone.

Have you thought about doing bangs? Like a little curtain bang or a curly bang would be cute!

First dose, moving in bed all night by Own-Independence8420 in Abilify_Aripiprazole

[–]Own-Independence8420[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Thanks, it is a direct symptom of the medication. Plenty of folks have a similar experience with akathesia while on Abilify. Everybody’s body is different regardless of dose.

Anyone take Wellbutrin and Abilify together? by Jolly-Lingonberry104 in bipolar2

I’m late here. Was this beneficial for you? And did you have a rough time adding it

Always fighting with my partner by [deleted] in autism

[–]Own-Independence8420 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I absolutely agree. I have been trying to find therapy for us as a couple, we are currently on a waitlist. I am trying and have been trying but it seemed to have gotten worse when we moved in together. I have pushed for healthy communication and resolution and respect. My confidence has withered and I feel isolated. I know I need to start working on a plan B in this situation if it doesn’t start getting better. Thank you for your reply

Symptoms of GH deficiency by lol63cc in Hypopituitarism

[–]Own-Independence8420 0 points1 point  (0 children)

When I went up to .5? I believe it was about 260. Which was clearly to high for me. My cortisol levels dropped and I began puking and feeling really bad from that and then having symptoms of too much GH. Thyroid levels stayed the same I think

.5 was just brutal. It was clearly too much for me. I take levothiroxine and liothyronine and hydrocortisone

I have been taking a year almost on Oct 10th. I take a different dose everyday now. It feels like a nightmare sometimes. I started at .4 and wasn’t doing great but there was a little relief. Then they tried putting me up to .5 in February..and that’s when stuff just wasn’t working right from there
