I am in the reconsideration stage of my claim for social security this time My doctor wrote out a statement for me to submit stating I am unable to participate or work at all and, she also added comments on why My condition is disabling
I know social security only approve about 20% in the reconsideration stage could I be one of those this time?
Social security?
The is absolutely no rhyme or reason with them, so don't get your hopes up for approval even on the second time. My advice is to hire an advocate or a lawyer who specializes in disability.
Reply:Yes, you could be. Many times you may have to stay on this. They may think if you really not need it you will give up. But, if you continue to pursue this, in time, you may get approved.
When my dad (He gone now), started having heart attacks, he did try to keep working. But, in time the Doctor said he needed to quit, after another heart attack on the job. But, it took a Lawyer, before he ever got approved and the Lawyer got 1/2 of his back pay.
We always figured he would have been better never trying to go back to work. Once he did go back, we figured they thought he could keep working until he died on the job.
Reply:In today's SS benefit hearings that are held, may cases are rejected because people go to work being paraplegics and they work with special equipment. It you are not that ill, the chances are very slim your case will not be approved.
Reply:This process is very long and frustrating. But is also bogged down with people trying to get SSD with carpal tunnel, etc.
It really doesn't help to get a note from your doctor for they determine what is disabling, etc.
Once you get rejected at the 2nd time, you will be given an administrative judge hearing.
I highly recommend hiring a lawyer that handles SS cases.
I got mine in about 9 months but I had intubated two times in one month and many other serious and life threatening problems.
My son has applied since 2004 and rejected. Got a letter saying he was going to be set for an administrative hearing with no date or time whatsoever. I called SS to see where his file is and it sits in hearings that is backed up 12 to 20 months. He is about to lose everything he owns awaiting this.
Good luck!!

Social anxiety. question?
well ive had social anxiety my whole life. i can remmeber it as far back as year 4. i just panic in social situations. i avoid going out with friends coz of being so scared of it. its affecting my job. and i think its getting worse. ive looked up heaps of stuff on the internet. and i always get like 100% on online tests.
im thinking of going on medication/ going to doctors. for help.
but i just want to know how does the medication help you?! like what does it do?
Social anxiety. question?
I have social anxiety, generalized anxiety disorder, and obsessive compulsive disorder causing Trichotillomania, and it's all caused a mild depression. I take antidepressants/anxiety medication, that keep the chemical balance in my brain at a constant level and help lessen the attacks by doing so, and take Xanax when I feel a panic attack coming on. It calms my mind and body, and helps lesson the symptoms, which gets me through the attacks. I also go to therapy to help the OCD and Trichotillomania. Go to the doctor, they'll diagnose you and give you what they think will be best for you. Hope things get better, I know things really sucked before I got diagnosed for sure, I couldn't go out of my house without having a panic attack and wanting to cry.
Reply:they have drugs that can be used for temporary purposes on as needed basis,for instance,at the onset of symptoms,they work to calm your body and lessen the symptoms at the time of the actual social anxiety attack..these meds include:ativan,valium,xanax,etc(the problem with these meds,is that if not taken as directed they can become habit forming)...then you can also be put on antidepressents that also work with anxiety,they take a few weeks to kick in and just make sure the chemical levels in your brain stay at a steady rate and those medicines help to lessen the occurance of the attacks..but once you visit your doctor or psychologist they will better be able to decide which meds will work better for you,depending on the severity of your anxiety and so forth. i myself suffer from anxiety and panic disorder and i used ativan which did wonders for me,even when i only took half a pill..good luck and hope things get better for you..take care and HAPPY NEW YEAR!
Reply:Medication will help wonders.
I had/have social anxiety and i take xanax and now I'm fine going to the mall and stuff...I don't SEEK to go places but I don't freak as bad.
good luck!

Transnational Corporations (I need to have this one in it)
Globalization

Social security card question?
They can give you a temporary paper documenting it for use while waiting for the real card.
Reply:They will give you a reciept that you should be able to use untill you receive your card.
Reply:If you have a number already and are getting a replacement card, then they give you a piece of paper saying this is your number - as for employment and the card comes in the mail in 2 weeks as I recall. If you are applying for a new number, then I am not sure how they handle it.
Reply:4 to 6 weeks is average. Social Security field offices do not print the cards, they're printed at our central office in Baltimore, MD. If you need a printout, you can obtain a receipt to show that you have applied for a new card.

Reply:Contact the Social Security Administration by telephone. They will give you good guidelines.
Reply:4 - 6 weeks.
Reply:it should be 4 to 6 weeks.
Reply:I got mine in about a week just this month. The social security office will give you a print out to use at the BMV(or DMV).
Reply:i don't know about illinois... but here in nevada when i got a new one after marriage.... it took 2weeks..... (through the mail) and when i got divorced it took 3. good luck!
Reply:All SS cards are sent out from a single location. So it will take a couple of weeks at least. They will give you a receipt that shows you have applied for the card and some places will except the reciept in some case, but you should check first.
Reply:It used to be 6 weeks, however I do not think it ever really took that long...that was on the outside.
I was not, however given a replacement on site last year. It took about 2 weeks to get it in the mail.

I need help with a Christian Social Action essay. Here's what I have so far. How's it sound? What does it need
In my opinion, the biggest social problem in the world today is pollution. Not pollution of land, water or air. Those are economical and environmental problems, and though they are indirectly the cause of social problems and the results of other social problems, they are not specifically social problems in and of themselves. I mean pollution in the minds and the hearts of the teenage generation. It is a social problem that is more widespread than any other. It exists anywhere and everywhere that there is a living creature, though it affects primarily the teenage generation. My generation. We are the most susceptible to this sort of pollution, and what we receive now will likely stay with us the rest of our lives.
I need help with a Christian Social Action essay. Here's what I have so far. How's it sound? What does it need
you forgot to say that your parents told you to say this stuff and that you didn't think of it on your own accord and that you forced to hear this crap your whole life.
Reply:My parents did NOT tell me to say this, I DID think of it on my own, I am NOT forced to hear this, and crap or not, I'd appreciate you not assuming everyone is like you. Report It
Reply:That's a great start. The next part should be something like this:
"It is the moral duty and responsibility for all rational people to take a stand against the insidious mind-killing magical thinking that is a part of belief in the Abrahamic god of desert monotheism (Judaism. Christianity, Islam). These ridiculous religious beliefs seek to supplant rationality and hard-won knowledge with the myths, superstitions, fairy tales and fantastical delusions of a bunch of ignorant peripatetic Bronze Age goat herders. As a result of this campaign against sanity, the USA is presently on a par with developing third-world nations with regard to magical, supernatural beliefs (devils, demons, spirits, talking snakes and donkeys, multiplying loaves and fishes, eating god in the form of a cracker, etc.), instead of being consistent with other modern industrial powers, where we belong. This is a national disgrace."
Good luck with your essay.
Reply:I like it. That's very original to use the analogy of physical pollution to parallel the spiritual pollution that you perceive around you. One suggestion I would make, try to use examples that you know about personally. When I was writing college papers, we were never encouraged to personalize them. Just like the evening news, everything was supposed to be from that ever-elusive [non-existent] neutral perspective. I now believe that makes for very irrelevant, boring writing. Get a piece o f paper and just start writing down your personal experience of the things (pollutants) you were talking about..the emotion of.....greed, lust, pride...etc. Also, JESUS FREAK, don't forget that the hero of the story wins in the end, so leave the reader with hope for the future.
Also you can use hyperbole, but use it rarely---treat it like that red hot fire sauce you can get in Chinese restaurants...yum. Humor is good too; as long as you don't get flippant, you won't undermine the seriousness of your thesis. And finally, virtually everyone says to set your paper aside for a day or two when you are done, just to let the dust settle in your mind. That also gives you time to prayerfully consider if any attitude is out of place. Attitudes are important; they always show in your writing.
Hoping the best for you...
Reply:Good start, but I'd suggest a more theologically-sound approach. To wit:
Our separation from God is not because of "sins", but of "sinfulness." Check Romans. We are not sinners because we sin, we sin because we're sinners. It's this "original sin" that we inherited from Adam that separates us from God. Therefore, a "kinder, gentler" generation will not bring a single member one inch closer to God. Only salvation can do that.
Reply:Sounds good so far.
Reply:I think its good.
Reply:Start a two- week bible camp 4 little kids (4-11) nd have the older kids help out (12-18) for community service hours. W do it where i live nd its a hit.

A Visit To The Social Security Office?
A retired gentleman went to the Social Security office to apply for Social Security.
The woman behind the counter asked him for his driver's license to verify his age.
He looked in his pockets and realized he had left his wallet at home.
He told the woman that he was very sorry but he seemed to have left his wallet at home. "I will have to go home and come back later."
The woman says, "Unbutton your shirt."
So he opens his shirt revealing lots of curly silver hair.
She says, "That silver hair on your chest is proof enough for me," and she processed his Social Security application.
When he gets home, the man excitedly tells his wife about his experience at the social security office.
She says, "You should have dropped your pants. You might have gotten disability too
