As evidenced by the “diagnosis” the above posters have written about- this SSDI and SSI system needs a serious overhaul.
Too much fringe diagnoses, which results in “disabled” people relying on the producers to support them.
Nothing you have said convinces me that you are seriously disabled because you have thrown out so many disorders- none which relate to each other.
So I guess we can end this discussion because you are going to believe what you believe and I will wind up paying for it.

Oh My Sides LOL! What do you think controls ones balance and coordination? The Vestibular System which includes portions of the brain. This means the Sensory Processing system. . Every ailment I have except for arthritis is directly related to it. Think for a moment single eye functional, partial deafness, Menieres disease, poor coordination, Myoclonic sensory triggered seizures, and a misdiagnoses of ADD ADHD all point to the same general area. It isn't one disorder I have it is several all related to the same part of the body the sensory processing portion. This portion determines what whe brain hears and sees and how it is to be interputed.

There is a huge difference between being able to care for yourself in your home enviroment and actually being able to work.

If I had typical G.A.D. then antidepressants would help me. They are like poison to me and can trigger an adverse reaction because of my neurological damage.

What I have learned about my disorders much of it I had to seek out on my own. It started with a book called Phobia Free I found by accident. Phobia Free was written by a doctor nearly two decades ahead of his time who had linked some anxiety disorder to hidden and undetected Vestibular Disorders. Without that book I would not be typing right now I would be an Agoraphobic.

I'm not scared of my attacks like most anxiety patients are. I know and understand the cause of them and adjust my enviroment accordingly to limit those triggers. But I can not stop all attacks as it is also a form of Epilepsy. That too would be a logical direct connection to sensory processing. My seizures didn't start till I was 34. That is why I finally had to go on disability. Medication can only do so much.
