Bipolar and Disability
Social Security Benefits
It's a very sad fact, but the majority of those filing for disability are unjustly denied the financial and medical benefits that could turn their lives around. Disability benefits that could help them sleep soundly at night, knowing that now they have the means to survive

And what happens to them?
Of course, some people will tell you that all you have to do to win your benefits is to go down to your local Social Security office and put in your application.
WRONG! Just take a look at the Social Security Administration's own statistics. Their figures speak for themselves. Over 2/3 Of All Disability Claims Filed Last Year (And We’re Talking Millions And Millions) Were Denied At The Initial Level!
What kind of help is that? How many of those poor folks lost their houses, their valuable possessions, got sicker and even died waiting for the government to make good on their promise to take care of them? There are countless horror stories and pictures of tragedy like this every year. Articles in the news. Congressional inquiries. However, in the end, nothing much changes for the better.
And now the politicians are even threatening to make dramatic changes to Social Security benefits that may make the guidelines for winning disability cases even more strict!! Now, more people are likely to lose out. Howver, when it comes to your Bipolar and Disability, there is good news!
