So I started looking into how I can get my disability claim process sped up so that I can go in front of the judge soon. In the past I read that terminal illnesses are expedited to see the judge. And I figured that I'd have to have something like cancer to get my claim sped up. But now I've read that someone with considerable suicidal ideation can get the same treatment for their cases.
So, Thursday I have my second appointment with the new psychiatrist and am thinking of asking her if she can help me with this. I told her during my first appointment that suicidal thoughts are always in the back of my mind but I didn't plan on acting on them.
I'm trying to figure out how I should go about asking her to help me get my claim process expedited.
The thing is, if I can get on disability I'd finally feel at least a little in dependant. cod finally get my own vehicle for transportation. Buy my own things. And most importantly, I would have better access to the healthcare I need. So if I can't find the right Med right now, I can at least have a bit more dignity by feeling more independant.

I read my psych report before I saw the SSI worker....I didn't even though they wrote this about me....but they said I had disorganized schizophrenia, the psychologist that was used to get a report, she wrote I repeatedly rubbed my hands through my hair, repeated myself, and said I was tormented by spirits, which is not what I told her....I told her I was interested in the spirit world for help to live like a normal person.... and had loose association with the sentences I had....im not that category....but when the government see's that I really hope they don't think im a unproductive person that can't work or even do things normally....
but see, i realized that conditions that are pronounced with disability that signal a flag that help is needed, that's when i think disability is approved.
so....multiple reports are a benefit....even though there not stated fact about someone...it does help with getting disability.

Poser being hospitalized will speed up the claim. Take this to mean what you will. Maybe more forceful sucidial thoughts and might act on? Just a thought as when got mine was hospitalized. Easier to get into a hospital then. Phillipa

What's it like in being hospitalized?
One thing is I have to eat a certain diet because my mood is very sensitive to foods I eat and I'm not so sure a hospital would be able to meet this need for me.But about a month ago I did check into a "crisis stabilization unit" for acute suicidal ideation. I haven't gotten the record from there for my case yet though.
How long might they keep me in a hospital? Would it basically be until I tell them I can keep myself safe?

what's it like to be hospitalized?
it depends on the hospital, but basically the general description is they hold people who are mentally incompetent, either causing harm to themselves or others, and also mentally ill people who are on the street and are not able to keep a normal profile. Example....walking around saying there Jesus Christ ready to take people to heaven, or simply talking to people that arnt there, lots of things.... I went to the psych hospital because I thought Lucifer was going to take over my body in the panic state, because I had been doing research on him and learning all these things to open your mind to the spirit world....and it backfired and I ran like crazy to the JPS psych part....I should of went to a pastor, or a catholic church, that really wasn't a psych issue....but they put me on tons of Geodon and Zyprexa and Depakote. Not fun....believe me the only thing good about a psych hospital is just having some peace on the amount of heavy drugs they admister to make the psychosis go away. Or suicidal indication.....I was sedated most of the time I was there.the usual time to stay stay is couple days to a week until stabilization is confirmed and then they discharge you, basically meaning you appear nowmal and are not doing, or reporting anything abnormal that would cause homicidal, psychotic, suicidal, or mood and anxiety destabilization. There's a lot more of that.....that I don't know, but that's what I've learned from being at 2 real psych stays.
For disability ... its like a documented fact that there something causing disability...they don't have disability for someone who's just depressed.....well, I don't know, im not a social worker, ill have to read the entire government book on that, attention issues would prevent that from happening lol...
hope that helped.....
