I've been diagnosed as having major depression, generalized anxiety disorder, and adhd.

1. 100mg Luvox
2. 10mg of Buspar
3. 4mg Klonopin
4. 27mg Concerta
5. 50mg of Serequel

In Februrary I applied for SSDI benefits and medicaid coverage based upon me losing my job. The job fired me based upon my disability. I ended up a few months later in the hospital for an infection for two days, and I had to fight with the school to get my bachelors degree requirements nailed down. (In progress) I am scheduled to graduate in August. Was issued temproary medicaid, then they denied me. I find out now I am elegible underneath my fathers insurance until the end of August. Last semester I ended up in an accounting class with only one other person I ended up in another college class with a person three times my age who had a stroke! Had to file a grievence against the dean, ended up losing my VR counsular to a new one.

1. When to go to work?
2. Am I overmedicated?
3. How to figure out what to do next in life?
4. Finding the right person to be with.
5. Should I go into outpatient intensive CBT?
6. Health Insurance is up at the end of August, where to apply?
7. What are my chances of getting approved for SSDI?
8. Should I just give up my unemployment benefits to apply for SSI?
9. My heart tells me to slow down but my head tells me to go to work.

1. Slow down. You have a lot going on. Focus on the task at hand.

2. Graduate (that's big!)

3. Stay connected with vocational rehabilitation. Let them help you sort out the work/SSDI situation.

4. Have someone (therapist/counselor) to talk to every week

5. Discuss with Dr. your medication concerns. Write them down.

6. Let some of these professionals take over some of these concerns that are overwhelming you. Lay your cards out on the table. "What should I do?"

7.Take a break. Give your heart the rest that it's asking for. Then get off to a fresh start.

Thanks Stevo,
VR is paying me back for the classes. I have one over the internet starting at the end of june until august and I have to clep out of six hours of humanities. I passed both of my other classes last semester.

I am seeing a counsular once a week, she works at the school. She did help me file for SSDI benefits, and there are alot of medical reports backing it up. It's alot to handle. With VR, I only see them when needed, paperwork has been signed for repayment of classes.

After I take test, I think it's time for a vacation....As for SSA, the adjudicator said she is getting ready to submit the paperwork to the medical doctors.

Semester ended three weeks ago. New one starts up the 28 June for block three classes which means its an 8 week course. You go nuts with all this going on....
