Social Security will look at nature of the original traumatic event but they will look far more at how that event or events has affected your life. Are you in psychiatric care? How long have you been in psychiatric care? Have you been hospitalized for the PTSD? Do you have any other psychiatric problem, such as depression or bipolar disorder? How do you spend your life? How well can you relate to other people? What happened when you tried to work?
I've had clients disabled by events that happened while in military service, clients who were the victims of horrific criminal attacks, clients who were the survivors of car crashes where others close to them perished, clients who came far too close to death or horrific injury and clients with many other sorts of trauma.
It's not easy but we'll listen to you and we'll try to help.
