Oh Kat, I wish you had brought your spouse in to answer that question. An optimist always looks at the bright side, apparently for a disability application you have to dwell on the negatives, (which for me is too painful to admit that any exsist.) I'm currently still receiving my assistance but I've had to appeal to have it continued and emotionally I'm not going there, so I have a lawyer looking after it for me because in my opinion it will not help me on the road to "living." I hate to be the one to tell you but often there are no cures for some of these conditions anymore than there is a cure for me having straight hair. I need to accept my hair as it is or perm it, and neither option is ever going to make it curly permanently, so I live with it and or put a hat on. (Slip in any symptom for hair.)
Your psychiatrist filled out the application too? Hang tight, don't expect anything either way, and once you get an answer proceed forward.
