> Hi Judy:
> You have Bp I with Panic Disorder that sounds to me like pretty serious form of Bipolar. Being Bp II with ultra Rapid Cycler, I did NOT get it approved for the reason I could be functionalble with some accomodation, such as a shift-change, from day-shift to evening shift as long as the work done. Then, I convinced myself their point of view.

> In my knowledge, Bp I like yours, ... it gets approval even without attorney and on just 'first try,' that I heard/read, for that it might be all depend on State to State. However, mental disorder like Depression and Bp II, I'm a kind skeptical unless more physical/mental problem written by a specialist. Also, for alternative, they would recommend M.I. to other place where appropriate placements are available, ... even they would help you find a company in which your condition is suitable.
