I am contemplating applying for disability through social security. I need to work, but at this point in my life, with all that is going on, don't know if I can get a job and hold it. It gets quite discouraging to apply for a job and get passed over for someone who is much smarter, quicker and way younger than I am. I have been told by several people that in their professional opinion, I would qualify for disability based on 1. My health and 2. My mental state...Kind of crazy these days.
