Every day I do Social Security Disability exams at least one person breaks down in tears at the end of the exam. I have been unable to find any information on how to help these folks, so have been trying to find a way on my own. Any information, suggestions, or criticizms appreciated!

Anyone watching your videos can tell you are a good, kind and helpful Dr for those who are experiencing disability. Thank you for all your thoughtful comments and experience. Much appreciated Dr. Foster. 🎉 ❤ 🙏

Doctor Excellent ! i love this channel. I agree. Can you please share the proper diffrence between mental illness and mental defectives!? Would you agree that demonic possession is real?

Thank you, along with the over diagnosis of mental health is the unwillingness to diagnose something more serious like early dementia or Parkinson disease which can actually go hand in hand with mental health.

There are certain mental health problems that are over-diagnosed, and others that are under-diagnosed, is my opinion. And they go in fashions, like bell-bottoms. Currently over-diagnosed are attention deficit hyperactivity disorder, autism, bipolar disorder, narcissistic personality disorder, and post-traumatic stress disorder.

First I want to let you know that your videos are so helpful and compassionate. I am a 58 year old special Ed teacher. I fell at work for the second time . I have back problems and neck problems, vascular insufficiency and injured knees. Most days I can barely walk. I also suffered the loss of two sisters, my brother and husband along with 2 cats. Now struggling with anxiety and depression. I miss working. I been home all year. Not getting better and struggling with the reality of being disabled. I have not yet applied for ssd. I keep hoping I will get better. I also have the fear of being denied ssd. Thank you so much for your time.

You likely will at least once be denied. Prepare for it

Sending good thoughts your way. I’ve seen some uploads on other channels on RU-vid specifically about teachers and disability. Is your work considered something that exacerbates or aggravates your existing injury or condition? I assume you are in a state where teachers pay into Social Security versus the teachers pension program in some states teachers can pay into both, so the teacher would need to apply via their district provided short term disability first in most cases. Not sure if that applies to you or not. So sorry, you have to leave the profession - there’s such a shortage of special ed teachers- but your health is more important, of course.

A couple of thoughts: 1. since you are over 55 years old, it will be easier for you to get approved for SSDI compared to a younger person. However, many people are denied. 2. If you receive a letter of denial, consider appealing, which must be done within 60 days, and if the appeal is denied, consider appealing a second time, which will result in an Administrative Law Court case, either in person, or by Zoom or phone. The approval rate in Administrative Law Court is fairly high. I think too many applicants give up when their application is first denied. 3. Also, consider engaging a Social Security Disability attorney. You want an attorney who specializes in disability, not an auto accident or divorce attorney. Good luck!
