Ned Advice on GettingDisability

Posted by Avenarius on June 23, 2012, at 14:51:51

My sister's mental health is in steady decline. She's anxious, depressed, possibly bipolar, and is experiencing auditory hallucinations. She was hospitalized once for a few days. She has been unemployed (and underinsured) for 2 years.

Her doctors have not yet agreed to support her attempts to get disability. I know it's very difficult to get, but I know that at least one person on the board was successful.

Any advice would be appreciated.

Do we shop for a doctor who will cooperate? Do we find a lawyer now or wait until we find a doc who will say she deserves to be on disability?

We are in NY State.

If you know of any helpful resources (information or organizations, online orotherwise) please pass them on.

Thanks!
