My goal is to get on SSI disabilty. I refuse to do anything else.

If I dont make it, I will continue living my life till my parents die or get tired of me. Than I will probably die.

Suicide, obviously.

I'm using a gun, what about you guys?

It's sustainable, mongrel.

I will find a tohno-chan poster, eat his flesh, wear his skin, and take his place in his mother's basement.

My hope is that once I graduate from college, I'll get a job. I probably won't have time to waste hanging out here anymore, but in theory that should be sustainable.

I was actually considering stabbing a knife into my shoulder. There's an artery about 1~2 inches deep, but if you cut it, you're out cold in 5 seconds, and dead in 10.

I don't plan.

I improvise.

>>6512876
>dead in 10 seconds

I highly doubt that. And shit must be really painful.

>>6512876
I would consider the femoral artery in the leg, as it's easier to get leverage. But you shouldn't throw your life away. Just learn to accept your misery, I can show you how to survive without anybody.

I'm currently fighting a heavy mental battle to get off my ass and go get that certification I need in order to get this one job I've been eyeing.
Oh, and I also need to actually get a bank account first as well.

>>6512881
You have to shove a knife two inches into your shoulder.
Of course it's painful, idiot.

>>6512860
Dive from the roof of some building, smash the ground with my head

>>6512882
But then he would have somebody, creating a paradox.

>>6512882
I already know how to enjoy being alone, but I don't want to abandon the internet.

But, no, I'm wanting to die because my desired lifestyle isn't capable of being lived for me.

I suppose the leg would be easier, though the radial artery in the upper arm is even better than the femoral, if memory serves.

>>6512844
>imlplying i won't receive SSI benefits until i'm dead
>implying i wont eventually own my parents home
>implying i dont save some of my check every month just in case something crazy happens and the feds take away SSI bennies altogether

>>6512860
I'd use a gun but those are illegal in my country, unless you have a license.
Guess I'll have to find another way, but I'm scared shitless of pain.

>>6512886
What the point on feeling horrible pain though?

I don't think someone can lose so much blood that fast still.

Well, my plans are Corporate Law.

It makes me sad whenever I think of how busy I'll be and my eccentricities will never go away.

I would like to have /jp/ for eternity, I really would.

how are like all of you guys seriously on SSI?

>>6512904
You can get it for depression and anxiety

>>6512902
Pain makes you desire the sweet release of death faster.
Pain will make you feel so much better when you begin to numb.
Instead of feeling nothing and becoming impatient, your last moments will be the wonderful feeling of relief.

A moderately painful death is a good thing.

Gensokyo, of course.

Use a grain of salt. This assumes you're a professional killing someone else, not some idiot trying to weed themself from the gene pool. Realistically, you'd be in horrific pain, wind up screaming and call an ambulance, but who knows.

I guess I'll just practice as a medical doctor with my MD I got.

I've got an idea! Why not stop being suicidal twats and get some EET?

I swear, if I didn't know any better, I'd think you you were all bitchy emo teenagers.

>>6512904
why hello deh lil man
>>6512897
here

i been heah a lil while now and lawdy do i see alot of you axin how to get on da SSI. Well now if you jus' sit over yonder ill tell you how i done it and how you can get it dones too! Guaranteed!

>>6512865

I, too, am banking on becoming a youkai.

>>6512912
I rather use some drugs to feel good and die slowly in my closed garage with the car turned on. They say you feel great and peaceful after a light headache.

>>6512920
>Subclavian
>2.5in depth
>2 seconds to pass out, 3.5 to die.

That's pretty damn fast, but seems easier to stab yourself in the heart instead, no?

>>6512924
foist thang you gots to do is

1. study on up on yo "disibility" this mean that you need to decide what yo ailment is gone be and you has to know teh ins and outs so you can start to modify yo behavior to those specificationmins. that way it will appear genuine to the case worker and any quack they send you to.

now if you done has a real problem which if you're a shut in you prob do even better. its still good to be edumicated on what you want to convey so you can receives duh SSI.

>>6512937
Personally, I'd just say something like jump off a tall bridge. If you have the option to stop and turn back, you probably will due to survival instinct. If you're serious, put yourself in a situation where there is no turning back.

>>6512951
Potassium Cyanide seems like the best way to go, if absolutely necessary.

>>6512966
Stop going to /r9k/.

>>6512951
What if you've jumped, and while falling, change your mind?

>>6512969
That would be terrifying but it's not like it would matter.

>>6512945

2. Get commited. Wassat? Commited? Why Uncle Remus you ol fool! Now now honey child i know you may have some apprehensionation about being commited but this will almost gurantee you done recieves benefits.

Go to your local intake unit. Yo hospital or whateva. Say to the nice lady "i am feelings suicidal and i need help" Them simle words will land you a 72 hour hold known as a 5150. This is whar you are either a harm to yo self or others.

Is dis drastic? It sho hell is. But lawd if you does wanna sponge off the state you sho need a good reason. Why i remember when i applied fo SSI the lady says "Uncle Remus you done been in any psychiatric care for your claim of disibility in the past 5 years" I says

"Oh lawdy i done just got released from a 5150 because i wanted to kill myself"

I was on SSI within 3 months. Receiving full bennies and no bullshit wait time. Being committed will get you further then any sort of boo sheet story you come up with. After the 72 hour hold is up you simply walk out the hospital with a few perscriptions and more importantly PAPER WORK of your sickness.

What are the chances I can get on SSI if I've:

- Never worked
- Physical/Mental abuse as a child
- Parents were alcoholics until after I had moved out
- Get anxious whenever I leave the house
- Can only be social in any capacity if I'm under the influence of something
- Have spent the last two years living on a friend's floor

Im trying to finish college going only to the tests, so far im able, but 3 times slower than recommended. After that, i will apply for a research position on the state, and i will become an isolated historician.
If im not able to do that, i will just kill myself with a gun. If i notice the proces of becoming hopesly poor, i would like to buy me a bus ticket to the ocean and jump from a cliff.

>>6512966
I heard here in Chile someone killed herself with potassium cyanide, but just before dying she threw up, and it was toxic. They had to evacuate the entire block. I'm not a chemist so I wouldn't know though.

My area is very cheap to live (even cheaper if I get my parents house). So, I'd just get a job, and go on with life... minus all the free time.

But I'm good to go as long as my parents are alive, so those are problems for future me, and I ain't helping that lazy faggot.

>>6512945
>>6512976
Is this legit? Without all the niggerspeak, it actually seems like good advice for getting on SSI. Should I copy this down and follow it?

>>6512969

Ask God to save you by turning off gravity for a moment? HAHAHAHA.

>>6512976
3. File a Claim

Now alot of folk will tell you SSI is a helluva time to get on. Well now if you don did numba 2 you on the fast lane to financial freedom (or slavery)
Still one must go thru a few things befo old uncle sam hands ovah any amount of money.

Apply to Social Security Disability right after you have been committed. Let dem know you are looking to recieve benefits beacuse you are unable to take care of yo self financially. They will send the proper forms. These forms ask a whole battery of questions but the hardest part is done filling out the STATE REASON FOR DISIBILITY CLAIM STATE. PROOF OF DISABILITY CLAIM

well now if you done did what i done told ya in part 2 you would be whistling dixie. If not make sure you have some sort of medical "proof"...past perscriptions for depression works fine. Yo doctor should have all dis. Dont have that? Still fill it out. I done put everything under the sun cept the heebie jeebies. PSTD, DEPRESSION, PSYCHOSIS. Again i had done studied all these things so i was prepared and informed in case they called me out! So fill out all the forms in they entirety...aint no harm in lyin but make sho you know yo shit.

Have been NEET since highschool ended. I am 23 and am scheduled to go to Navy boot camp in May. Nuclear Field should be fun, if not then I guess I can always kill myself.

So all I need to do is tell a doctor I wish I were dead (which isn't a lie) and I'll get money from the government? This is in America, right?

>>6513009
I hear the UK gives even better welfare benefits.

>>6513008

Hopefully they'll teach you something.

>>6513009
Seems like it. I'm saving this all down, it's great advice.

>>6513022
>>6513008
At the very least, you know you'll have access to guns to do it with.

My parents are probably eventually going to force me to see a psychiatrist anyway. If they diagnose me with whatever (social anxiety disorder is the one thing I'm certain I have), will that be enough proof to get government money?

ill take some time to answer you young fellas

>>6512977
You done have a mighty good chance!
Why? Well hell son you a mess! Suck it up for one day and go see a doctor and get on something, anything fo yo ailment. Youd be suprised what a simple perscription of Zoloft or Effexor will do fo yo case! Hell i got like 13 different scrips and i done even take em!
Suck up your pride!
>>6513005
i assure you i am 2 legit 2 quit. i have been on bennies for over 5 years. not only that but i havent done seen a doctor in prob 4 and i aint never had a review of my case!
>>6513009
well now i recommend you look into what yo state provides. but yes i am in america home of duh free and of the needy.

>>6513029
Already own a P226 and a 10/22
I like guns, just never had the urge to shoot myself. I'm ready to be a normalfag.

>>6513033
>will land you a 72 hour hold known as a 5150

What exactly do you mean by this? Will I have to stay in some scary place for three days? I don't like being anywhere other than my house, so this'll be quite hard.

>>6513041
3 days is a small price to pay for a lifetime of work-free money

>>6513045
I know, I'm just really scared and apprehensive of doing these kind of things, so I want to do it right.

>>6513051
I'm in the same boat. This sounds like it would be great for me since I sincerely believe I can never have a job due to my social anxiety, and I would no longer have to be a burden on my family. But...I'm also really scared to do any of these things

4. The Process

Now dis is where yall gone have to suck up yo pride and hold on to ya butts. You see how well you filled out the papers will speed up the process of getting approved. If you done it good they should contact you by phone to schedule a walk in appointment. This can be speeded up if you constantly call to check on yo case. Use these moements to sound agitated. To sound like you is crazy!

When yall get yo walk in. Go in like a crazy man. Why i don sat down in teh lobby and started actin a fool right away. Subtle is teh key. I brought a folder with all my scrips, all my forms, all my doctor notes, and then put the folder on the chair. You see i have OCD. So it makes sense to display my behvior in public. Always act as if someone is watching. Cuz suga they probably is!

When called in to speak to yo case worker. Act aloof, dispondant, anxious. Repeat words, wring your hands...DONT SHAKE HER.HIS HAND...and if you do wipe your hands on your pants before and after. All this stuff is taken in. All this stuff tells them "THIS BOY IS SHO CRAZY!" hell we aint even got to the interview. They will go over your forms and a bunch of mumbo jumbo. At some point they will say "So you believe you cannot work?"

"Why...i want to...i like to work...but when im at work my *symptoms really kick in...i dont wanna be on SSI forever...i just need to really focus on getting healthy...because im having a real tough time. I was done reading about your back to wrok program and i can see myself doin something like taht in a few years."

I'm going to graduate college in December. I have a Business major with a concentration in accounting.

With that behind me, I'm joining the army; I'm scheduled to ship for BCT in January. Accounting sucks balls.

>>6513062
Back to work? What that. Well if ya done read the SSI site and FAQ youd done know! Showing that you are some what informed will let this bitch know you are serious bout *getting better!

We don't wanna get better tho do we Uncle Remus?

WELL OF COURSE NOT. Thing is the state doesnt wanna give moey to flagrant free loaders. If you show some initiative towards getting "healthy" you stand a much better chance of receiving aide.

hang around cuz there are only 2-3 parts left

I'm on SSI and live with my mother, so I have no bills or rent to pay. I'll never have to work, if I don't want to. I'll probably kill myself after my mother dies, since she's the only reason I haven't yet.

uncle remus, should i see a psychiatrist first to start laying the foundation, or just get tossed into a 72 hour hold for being a danger to myself?

i don't need to really fake anything, i have history of abuse so i'm pretty fucked up.

>>6513086
Wondering this also. My family is extremely poor, so seeing a psychiatrist is beyond my means. Should I just go for the 72 hour hold option? Would that also cost money?

>>6512844
no i do not.

>>6513086
I wanna know this too. I don't really need to fake anything either, since the fact I'm pale as a ghost and have never had a license or job in my life should be proof enough that I'm a shut-in

>>6513064
I graduated Finance and thought the same thing. If you think things will be better in the military you are an idiot, especially if you are on /jp/. Doubly so if you went enlisted rather than officer since you will have a college degree.

Does anyone have any experience with Canadian depression/anxiety benefits?

I would like to go see a doctor but I get too stressed whenever I consider asking my parents to take me.

I don't think that I would even be able to say anything to the doctor if I did go.

>>6513107
My god you are like a Canadian me.

>>6513081
That's mind boggling to me. Don't you love 2D? If 2D isn't what's keeping you here, I don't even know why you're on /jp/....

>>6513081
Rin will miss you.

If I had to see a psychiatrist when I was 8 will that help me get SSI? I'm not saying it would be proof enough that I'm "crazy", but it would certainly be proof I'm not faking

>>6513094
The government will pay for you to see a psychiatrist after you apply for SSI.

>>6513107
First step is getting there. The rest you can get someone to speak on your behalf and figure out your options. You should be able to get help for free if you do this right. Personally I gave up at the second step after I realized I never had anyone to speak on my behalf.

How much money do you get? For the record I'm a pretty standard "very nervous around people barely go outside and have never had a job" hikki

>>6513106
Sorry, I forgot to say "good luck". You will need it.

>>6513125
So I should apply to SSI, than go see a Psychiatrist? Will they pay for my visits even while the SSI is still pending?

>>6513119
I do love 2D, but it's not like I'll ever actually meet my waifu. Maybe I'll be 2D if I get reincarnated.
>>6513121
I'll miss her too.
>>6513139
I get $700 a month for my depression and anxiety. I'd get more if I had to live on my own.

>>6513148
After you fill out the forms and such, they'll schedule a visit for you at the one closest to your location.

>>6513136
I don't have anyone how would be able to speak on my behalf either.

I have though that if I ever did manage to see a doctor, I could try to write a letter of some sort, but I doubt that would get me very far.

It would also probably kill me to sit their while someone read a letter of that nature.

I'm taking a liking to this Uncle Remus

>>6513163
The fact you can't talk to people is a good thing in this case, as long as the psychiatrist isn't a dipshit and can clearly see you are uncomfortable just speaking to them

>>6513122
Anyone have an answer? I mean to me it shows I had mental problems at a young age so surely it will help, but you guys seem more knowledgeable about this sort of thing

>>6513163
If you're able to speak with your parents you could get them to do it for you. I don't speak to my parents so they're sort of out of the question for me, personally.

I wish there was a way I could "see" a psychiatrist online. I have no problem talking to people like this

>>6513176
My guess is that a longer history of psychiatric treatment is better, but that's not based on anything other than whimsy and speculation.

>>6513189
>My guess is that a longer history of psychiatric treatment is better
This is correct. I had been to two therapists and been on a handful of anti-depressants before I applied. I had also never worked, which helped my case further.

>>6513065

OK Niggerspeak off. If the interview goes well the bleeding heart case worker will empathize with your plight. She will recommend you see a doctor...no, not your doctor...THE SSI DOCTOR. This is the man who determines if you should receive benefits.

Final boss fight.

This interview is usually held in a separate location a few weeks from the first interview at the social security office. The doc will take you thru a simple question and answer and then finally a sort off... aptitude test.

If you have followed my instructions you should have no trouble defeating him. All your training will determine your success.

Just remember to exhibit the symptoms. After all...

YOU ARE SICK. This is the realization i came too as i stood outside the office. What kind of fucking 'normal' person would go thru this manipulation and acts of self humiliation just to avoid working? A scum bag. A deviant. Sure criminals scam the system all the time. Problem is they continue to do it and a year down the road they are caught doing something dumb like shoplifting and are dropped from their SSI. So if you recieve the bennies. Be cool. Dont go wild. Dont break the law. Lay low.


What i find funny about this whole thing is the fact
The time off has really given me chance for self reflection. SSI can help you sustain a NEET lifestyle but eventually it can also give you that extra kick to start helping yourself. Good luck.

>>6513172
But the problem is I can't really see myself getting to a psychiatrist.

>>6513182
As I said above, I get stressed out when I so much as consider asking my parents to take me to a doctor. There is no way I could have them do it.

>>6513201
I sincerely thank you for taking the time to type all of this out. I mean it. This will probably help me immensely down the road. Thank you.

>>6513205
Seriously it's like we are the same person. I actually did tell my mom once I should see a doctor (she does!) but when she told my dad he got mad at both of us. Then my mom told me they think I'm "pretending".

>>6513205
>There is no way I could have them do it.
Have you tried sending them an email? Or a letter? I'm sure you could work something out.

>>6513220
Kind of the same, here. I told my Mother that I'm a terrible sack of shit, and that I wish to see a psychologist/doctor. She agreed, but eventually just deluded herself into thinking that I'm not really as bad as we all think, and that if I just try, I can become a functional member of society.

>>6513097
>>6513094
>>6513086

Yes. Obviously i didnt go into the full history of my own case. I did have a strong foundation to work from.

Any kind of documentation is helpful. You dont need to see a paid psych doc. Just make sure you have some sor to fo validation from someone in a position to make such an assesment. Your personal physician should be able to perscribe anti depressants and anti anxiety meds. It's simply a matter of swallowing your pride for 30 minutes and telling him you have issues.

My suggestion of self commitment is based on the common problem of being given the run around by state workers. No matter what the media says they dont just hand it out to anyone. The process is made so people give up. Having documentation is killer in getting a "hearing". (ths is what they call seeing a case worker in a cubicle btw) Having yourself commited is just that kinda gold star VIP backstage pass. It says "holy shit this guy IS fucked up"

I know it can be scary i can try and give some tips on how to deal.

What sort of questions do the therapists ask?

>>6513243
Would me seeing a doc when I was 8 be enough of a foundation?

How should I go about telling my parents I want to apply for SSI? It seems like the kind of thing my dad would roll his eyes and get mad about, even if it will save him money

>>6513243
I'm seriously thinking about getting commited now. I have social anxiety (just like everyone else on /jp/) so I don't think I have it in me too just go in by myself.

I still live with my parents, so I can't just disappear for three days, should I tell them about it, and enlist their help? I am confused and scared, and I don't know what to do.

I'm curious to know if I qualify for any mental problems, but I genuinely don't think I have any.

My morals are skewed well beyond any "civilized" nation's though, as I don't believe in wrong and right. Maybe that'll get me free gub'mint money.

Is getting committed really necessary? I'm pretty sure after spending 10 minutes with me the SSI evaluation guy will know I'm not faking. Plus I'm the guy who saw a shrink when I was 8, so there's more proof

>>6513268
Just up and disappear for three days. It'll help you look crazier.

>>6513280
Being an anarchist and/or raging leftist does not qualify you for government benefits.

>>6513243
I realize its hard to do anything if youre a shut in.

Whats funny is before i got on SSI. I wasn't one. It's been 6 years now! Slowly i have been doing things. Covert night maneuvers and what not. The one saving grace i have is the monthly check. It's really worth it to TRY. This one thing can set you up for life.

$1000 a month, reduced housing, free healthcare, medical, dental, vision goes a long way.

Suck it up. This is your money! It's there to help unfortunates like us. So use it or lose it.

How much money do you get from SSI?

>>6513303
That's what I figured, but I'm a bit of a danger to society during hard times, so I figured they might put that into consideration.

>>6513317
Everyone on it seems to be postings 700-1000 monies.

well i'm not a NEET but if worse comes to worse i`ll be beasing it up with these .99 ice teas from quick check

>>6513325
1000 bucks a month doesn't seem like that much. I assume, anyway, since I have no idea what cost of living is

>>6513331
It's a lot if you live with your parents and have no bills or rent to pay. I spend all my money on figures and whatever else happens to strike my fancy.

Do they factor food into how much you get per month or do you get food stamps separately?

>>6513333
Yeah but in my ideal situation I would be living on my own with that money.

>>6513324
I see where you're going with that, but they already bankroll police and an alphabet soup of other agencies for that purpose. You really think general health and welfare is a priority of these people?

>>6513327
those bottles are perfect to piss in while sitting down.

>>6513331
Housing'll eat up most of it, varying anywhere from nothing to all of it. Depends on your area.

Food's cheap. In survival mode, 2 bucks a day is a generous estimate.

>>6513333
>>6513325
How is this? I've seen that the maximum amount is $674, how are you people getting more than that? How do I do it too?

>>6513253
sure i dont see why not.
>>6513268
> I am confused and scared, and I don't know what to do.

all the more reason you should seek help. My parents were eventually understanding but it took a complete metldown, an overdose and the SWAT team busting down my door. Now they leave me to my own devices. Simply tell them you desperately need their help and you are not in the right mindset. Don't be dramatic. Be cool about it. If they dont wanna help take a bus and just go to a hospital.

>>6513338
You'd get more than $700 if you lived on your own. I'm not sure of exactly how much.
>>6513336
I get food stamps as well, which I give to my mother.
>>6513347
That's what I get, because I don't live alone.

>>6513339
You build up enough of a record, and eventually it's cheaper for them to do something with you when you AREN'T in jail, just because of the ridiculous costs of prisoner housing and such.

Cops already know me, eventually they'll get sick of chasing me, and I'm generally non-violent unless it's neccesary, so jail terms are always short.
Ever hear of Henry Earl?

>>6513352
Ok, thanks. Also do food stamps run out after a year or so, or can you renew them? Do they make you keep seeing a doctor after you get approved? If so how often?

Sudo, if you leave there will be no one to white knight for Rin.

/jp/ - Luvia Culture

>>6513366
They've been auto-renewing them every six months or so, for me. I've been going to a psychologist and taking meds, but it's voluntary. I don't have to do anything if I don't want to.
>>6513368
My mother is in good health, so I don't think she'll be dying anytime soon. I'll probably be too much of a coward to kill myself when the time comes, anyway. I already planned to do it three times and backed out.

>>6513349
I am still ridiculously scared, but I'm going to go talk to my mom about it now. I feel as if I'm about to throw up. This shit sucks.

>>6513364
Ridiculous costs of prisoner housing? Prison complexes have massive economies of scale.

If they're sick of chasing you down, what is stopping them from just beating the shit out of you or trumping up a charge and pointing to your long list of crimes as evidence? I think this is a much more likely conclusion to the scenario than them handing you a check and asking you to behave.

>>6513385
I'm the same way. I'm afraid to say outright "I want to go apply for SSI because I'm fucked" because then they'll just think I'm pretending more

>>6513347
It seems to fluctiate. in the beggining i recieve 639 then it went up to 800 then $1000. Now i get around $938 but i budget well and have a savings so i round it up.

$1000 is not alot you are right. The one thing i have is living at home. If i wanted i could get subsidized housing.rent vouchers.housing assitence. Food stamps are vailble too but i never bothered with them. TBH living like this helped me get healthy physically with a low cost high protien diet. Tuna is cheap, eggs are cheap, whole wheat bread is cheap.

A few tips i forgot. Budget your money. Write everything down from games to dvds and learn to stretch a dollar.

Keep excellent records!

Keep NO records.

I have not used a personal account for any major purchases like HDTVs, PS3, etc etc. Why? Well sometimes the state sends you a letter aasking you to show your last bank statement. It looks awful fishy having Bang Bros and AMAZON.COM all over teh place. Pay with cash. Funnel funds thru your parents accounts by writing a check to them every month. I have no paper trail of all the lavish shit i buy. Eventually you will get the hang of when these infrequent requests come to your mailbox. Then you can carefully maneuver your big purchases. This is helpful if you wanna build your credit up or something.

Live lean for a few checks. I have several grand stashed just in case.

>>6513392
Imagine trying to convince somebody that you're normal. Do you see that succeeding? If you're really a basket case like you say you are it'll show.

>>6513394
How did it go up, did you need to request it? if so what did you ask? Also what state is this in, might I ask?

Is it OK to feel sorry for some of you guys?

>>6513394
What's wrong with having that shit on your account? "SORRY BUT YOU BOUGHT TOO MANY VIDEO GAMES. NO MORE MONEY FOR YOU"

>>6513402
Yes

Just tell them you have a serious problem and you don't want to be a financial burden on them. Tell them you intend to begin the process of getting on SSI and you need to get an evaluation. Be persistent. I apologize if youre totally underage because i dunno WTF to do then. I was in my 20's when i did this so i had SOME working experience and put money into the system. I'm sure they have some sort of analogue for a younger person tho. Easiest thing you can do is start racking up some doctor visits.

>>6513420
I'm 20 right now. I graduated high school almost 3 years ago and have been a tumor on my family ever since

Most people I've known on SSI have had to apply multiple times. As long as you're persistent, you should get it eventually.

>prisoner housing
And we keep mindlessly adding more people into them. I've never been to a jail that wasn't overcrowded.

Beating the shit out of me hasn't stopped me yet, why would a bunch of jackbooted thugs think it would work now?

>>6513412
Well im a bit paranoid for one. Two i dont like bullshit. I don't want to give anyone a reason to question my monies. Why risk it? I even specify that i set aside a few hundred in rent to my parents. Hell maybe thats why i got a living expensese raise!? Don't flaunt it, You never know when some asshole will take a double peek at your file. Case workers change constantly. Ive had 8 in 6 years.

Ive only met with 1.

The...fuck...

I should seriously stop wandering other boards.

Uncle Remus is a bro though.

How much Cirno does /g/ consume in a day?

At about the same rate as Fermi burns houses down.

I don't see why buying a few luxury items a month online would cause them to drop you

>>6513459
This money is for survival, if you can afford more than bare necessities, then you likely shouldn't be collecting a check in the first place. Launder your money.

>>6513473
So they just expect you to sit in the middle of your floor and stare into space all day?

>>6513473
That really only applies to medications and stuff. If you're buying a shitload of luxury items then they're going to ask themselves why the fuck are they paying for your meds

>>6513481
thats what disabled people do. otherwise they should be at work or at school. Who cares what some unseen gubbmint entity sees you as. Become that faceless number and get your monthly check and spend it however you want. Just be smart about it.

Finished talking to my mom. I'm not very eloquent, so she didn't understand my plight very well. I told her about getting commited to a hospital. She raised the important question of cost. Will going into a 72 hour 5150 cost me any money? I have no insurance, and the rest of my family is very poor, so this is important.

I'm terribly sorry for the blog post.

>>6513486
actually this is a bit of a misconception. The state pays your SSI check. When you get on SSI you are eligible for free health care but this is thru a separate service. The two never cross paths. You simply get a Medicaid card like everyone else and join a health plan with no monthly fees or payments.

The monthly SSI check is supposed to be for housing and food. Thats why its good to say you pay rent if you live at home. It shows you are using the money for its purpose. Do i pay rent? LOL no... i just say i do.

>>6513394

Just a thought. If you wanted to buy things from amazon without them knowing about it you could just buy amazon gift cards out in town and use them.

A lot of officers get hired out of the military.From their perspective, you are both what they believe is wrong in the world and an outlet for their violent natures. They don't give a damn about stopping you long term beyond doing their job and having a punching bag.

To reiterate what I was saying: the likely outcome of your course of actions will likely sort itself out through violence on part of the officers or through the prison system.

I completely understand (and agree) that it makes more sense financially to just give you a check. Unfortunately, that is unlikely to happen. Look at how much the government spends on military to see where the real priorities lie. People in general, and especially those who do not fit into the system, are intentionally crushed through physical and economic violence.

>>6513499
it shouldnt. junkies go into these place all the time to get sorted. i was already on a medical plan so i just went to my primary caregiver hospital. you could even go to a county hospital. There is no charge. Imagine if you really were suicidal. Do they bill a man about to jump off a bridge for treatment? No. You will have to follow up on any prescriptions you receive. The hospital should give you an initial supply. Just like anything really.

So if I got on SSI, was on it for a long time, then decide to spend some saved up money on a new computer I could lose it?

>>6513519
>Imagine if you really were suicidal
I am. Kinda.

Anyway, that's reassuring. I'm still a little apprehensive, but I'm getting hopeful about this. I think I can do this.

>>6513530
no. this tip is just for beginners. eventually they leave you alone and you become a number. you'll get spam mail about your benefits and maybe a few forms to fill out just saying you are still eligible and you have to sign it. sooner or later that stops coming too. you really are part of a system. its huge and people get lost in the shuffle.

i'm just saying, in the beginning play it cool.

>>6513530
Surely they'd only take it away if you were really blatant. Like, almost all of your money every month goes toward video games or some shit and none of it goes toward housing or food. Then again I know nothing about SSI (yet) so I don't know

>>6513542
just dont go in there saying I WANT SSI. The doctors could give two shits about that. Youre just building up a case for yourself. Talk about your real problems and get on medication. Then you can take the necessary steps.

>>6513555
Of course. I would have to be /b/ levels of stupid to go in their just asking for SSI. I saved down all of Remus' advice, so I can follow that along as a guideline.

>>6513514
I'm certainly not saying you're wrong here.
I don't begrudge cops as people any more than I do any other person, even if they are the face of institutionalized sadism.

Unfortunately, they don't seem to realize that they're effectively building an army via the prison system. Throw a bunch of hardened men together in adverse situations, and they make friends for life, just like going to war did. I'm more of a risk inside because I have a message and I get along with everyone.

Ideally, what I'd like to do is pull a bit of a Fight Club moment with a social worker and be like "Look, I'm not going to work for a filthy business, and I have not a single compunction on killing and stealing to survive. Just tell the Feds I'm crazy and cut me a check every month, and you'll never have to see me again. Pay me now, or the deaths and damages are on your head."

>>6513637
>Fight club moment
You think very highly of yourself. You are not that cool, and that will never happen, nor work.

thanks for posting information and experiences, guys

i had a fairly abusive childhood and teenage life, all of this has given me some encouragement, i've been spending every day freaking out about what i'm going to do with myself

>>6513649
Good luck, man. I know I will need it.

>>6513648
No, I don't really have any faith that it would.
But, like I said, I have no compunction against stealing to make my way, and I'm perfectly comfortable being homeless.
I've posted on /jp/ from a netbook in trash-strewn back alleys via hacked wi-fi before, I can do it again. I've gotten pretty good at living by my wits.

I'm afraid to do this because my family will hate me for it.

>>6513687
So?
If it's something you want to to, go to. Once you have that, you don't need your family anymore.

>>6513687
If you truly have problems, them hating you will not matter. I already told my immediate family about what I intend to do, and reaction was negative around the board.

I got over it.

ssi is only a benefits program, what happened to our hopes and dreams? theres no way that /jp/ which is so filled with this warmth couldn't see that the starkness of reality needs the softening touch of idealism.

for me, it's just chasing a fleeting illusion of something that felt ridiculously beautiful. i might find myself in utter despair in a few years or so, but i think denying myself that slimmest chance would be a affront to my true feelings. it might be impossible to not regret it then on some visceral level, but nevertheless i'll still probably walk the path of the mathemagician as long as i can still see and feel~

--or if it gets boring lol

>what happened to our hopes and dreams?

I never had any. My only "dream" now is to peacefully live out the rest of my days, in exactly the same situation I am currently in. Having money would only help me fulfill that.

>>6513687
Same. I'd be looked down upon by my whole family (more than now, even)

>>6513790
I'm the same way. All I want in life is an apartment/house in a safe neighborhood, a good internet connection, maybe a new game or something every once and a while, and however much money it takes to ensure those things

This topic is both sad and completely funny at the same time.
