i know how you feel in regards to social security, i was turned down 2 times, the 3rd time i got a lawyer. she got it for me easily. how could they expect me with all of my new mental problems to fill out all of those papers correctly. i had to give the attorney up to 5,000.00 depending on my outcome. i got approved and they had to pay me back 45,000.00 back pay. it made me so angry to get turned down because i knew i couldn't work, i couldn't even function at all. keep fighting for your rights...its your money
