Not really being sarcastic, I am on SSI and have been for 15+ years. Was denied twice, even with the State declaring that I am disabled. To get SSI you have to get a lawyer to file certain paperwork. Went to several doctors that the government wanted me to. Luckily I also had a psychiatrist and a therapist so my mental disorder was on record. Also had a county case manager who put I so much work to make sure that I went to the correct adult foster home and found the lawyer I needed. That isn’t even scratching the surface of the paperwork I have to go through every year just to keep my CADI funding.
