How much do you make from disability /jp/

>> No.6934713

Nothing because my country does not support people like that.

>> No.6934718

Most entry-level jobs that I could do(guard, production work, light physical work etc) around here actually REQUIRE you to have at least some degree of disability, since the government pays a big part of the salary if you employ a disabled person.
So I can't get a job even if I want to, precisely because I'm theoretically healthy.

>> No.6934725

$0.00
I am a working member of society and I pay into social security.

If I could fake a disability or have angelic parents like some of you, I certainly would. But as I am now, it looks like I'm either going to be dumped into regular society or become homeless in three years.

Around $800 a month.

Being disabled sucks.

Once my parents force me to see a shrink (and they probably will soon) then I'll talk up how "I don't know how I can support myself when I'm so afraid of leaving the house". Then hopefully the shrink suggests I try to get SSI, then it's all easy street

Fucking this. I wish I could be a NEET again, but my parents demand $430 from me every month for rent and they treat me like crap, and I can't move out because even the cheapest apartments in this area are too expensive for me. And as of today I'm in danger of losing my job because my boss doesn't like how I don't talk to every fucking customer that comes strolling my way as I'm stocking the shelves and he also isn't happy about how I can't work at superhuman speeds. If I end up jobless my parents will kick me out. I'd get a job somewhere else but no one is hiring. I'm trapped as fuck ;_;

I'm pretty sure Asperger's and clinical depression and severe anxiety disorders are enough to get an SSI. I guess I could try playing it up and seeing what happens if I were willing to give up all pride.

>Asperger's and clinical depression and severe anxiety disorders are enough to get an SSI.

Like another Anon said it is,you just need to sufficiently explain how its affecting your life and prove that you actually have it.

Which for the most part should probably be easy. Just say "I like spending time around inanimate objects rather than real live human beings" which if you're a true jp'er is true anyways.

>> No.6934967

Can you get SSI if you're employed and/or in school?

I'm not a NEET, but I have clinical depression, ADHD, and severe social anxiety disorder (all actual diagnoses, not self-diagnosed faked). But despite that, I'm going to college and have a part-time job (my parents wouldn't support a NEET). It is *extremely* uncomfortable for me to be around other people even though I am forced to be around them almost every day. Sometimes it makes me feel bad enough that I think I'd rather kill myself. However, I already tried once and failed (jumped out of a building, resulting in me being bed-ridden for a few months and in a wheelchair for about a year... it wasn't a skyscraper, but it also wasn't just some 2 or 3 story building either). So I'm afraid that if I try to kill myself again I'll manage to fail again but be permanently disabled or something, incapable of enjoying myself while alive and incapable of actually killing myself, and that'll be even worse.

SSI in our case is about the "healing process", as you're already out and about you won't be able to just sot around at home all day and collect checks (get worse) you may collect some assistance, but don't expect more than $200 a month.

However, if you were to get worse..

Say have an episode at school and be forced to move back in with the folks or face homelessness it would be an entirely different story all together. it's all about how much you NEED it.

>> No.6934995

Indeed, build yourself a case first. Spend some time in a hospital. Scream and cry in a crowded place and be forcefully escorted out of the building.

I'm pretty sure I could get SSI since there's obviously something wrong with me. I have never had a job and never got a license, which are already indicators I'm a shut in, right?

I don't think that'll get a person SSI,just a jail cell.

How do I have to act in front of a psychiatrist to convince them I have the various /jp/ mental problems? I mean I really do have them, but if acting a certain way will help my case then I'll do it

I actually have the autism and my mother constantly tries to push me into accepting disability aid.

I reject it every time, and threads like these give me the motivation to keep rejecting it. Folks who scheme or "Cheat" the system help send it crashing down far sooner. Thanks for helping my anarchist tendencies thrive!

I don't expect SSI and programs like it to survive the next decade. Extreme forms may linger on but the gravytrain is pulling into station get on while you can, save up and buy some college or something.

>> No.6935061

I don't think I'd have a problem getting accepted if I applied, but how do you bring up the subject of SSI with your therapist or psychiatrist, and how do you talk with them or ask them to recommend you for it? Considering the nature of the matter, I don't think being really overt about it would be a good idea.

Possibly, it really depends on your personal history. When you apply, the government will pay for you to see a psychiatrist and get evaluated. The whole process of me applying and getting my first check took about six months or so.

It takes a lot longer than that.

I've been off it for about 2 weeks now, dealing with some relatively mild withdrawal symptoms.

It helps a bit, mostly by making you not give a shit about much of anything, but once the contrast of being obsessive/not caring about anything cools off, the drug basically makes you how you were before with some slightly better social skills, a bit less anxiety, and a lot less libido.

The more hardcore the depression, the more effective SSRIs are.

If you have really bad depression, or OCD, start taking it again.

If you have mild depression, don't. If you moderate depression, such as myself, you probably shouldn't bother either.
