Best way to go about getting off of SSI?
Disability Support / by jessica92

...See more I'm on break from school right now and can't wait to go back! I'm going for my second master's degree and I REALLY want to get off disability when I'm done with this degree. My disabilities are PTSD, OCD, GAD, and SZA (w/ bipolar II). I also have scoliosis and can't stand for long periods of time because of it. I also have a pituitary adenoma, but that doesn't really affect me... I'm wondering about peoples' experiences about getting off of disability, specifically, SSI. I've been on it since I was a kid! I do work a little bit (part-time, obviously), but I really want to manage a full-time job once I'm done with school. I think I can do it since I can manage full-time school. I actually think it would be better for my disabilities if I were to have a job that I really love because I do BETTER when busy. I want to do this the best way/easiest way possible. What are your experiences? Thanks for listening.
A listener shamed me for taking medication

...See more A listener I've been talking to on and off for a little while now told me that I should not be taking meds and was trying to use "logic" to tell me why I should use natural remedies for my hallucinations. He's from a very different country than me, so his ideas are very different from mine. I got so mad because he was trying to say that he wasn't shaming me because it was the doctor's fault for prescribing it, but if he thinks it's so bad, then he's obviously shaming me for it. I've gotten so many people like that on here. I just block them but I can't help but be upset over it.
I am proud of myself because my symptoms have been less intrusive lately.

...See more My anxiety, depression, and hallucinations have been decreased. I feel really happy about this! Though I'm still feeling antsy, I feel like I have a better sense of where I'm going in life and that has helped my symptoms. :)
