When I read your post I was struck how overwhelmed you must feel- which only makes it more difficult to sort things out. It sounds as if your biggest priority is to get the suit under control- even under the best circumstances litigation drags on and with an unsupportive shrink- well that's worse. If your attorney is accustomed to these types of suits, then he can recommend someone (an expert witness type of shrink) to review your records and write the proper documents you need to win your case. Is he a contingency or fee- paid attorney? I think once the financial problems are under control you'll be able to deal with the other issues. BTW- I went the SSDI route, hired an attorney who specialized in those matters and was approved in a little over 2 months- with a very large check that covered the previous year and now monthly checks. Is this something you can consider? I know there is a 1 year restriction with ADA suits- how long has it been? Hopefully the medication you were given will start to work soon and you won't be in so much discomfort. Take care, Judy
