KINSTON, NORTH CAROLINA Complete the following form if seeking help from a disability lawyer or attorney in Kinston, North Carolina NC
Can you get social security disability or SSI in north carolina (in kinston or any other town) if have a mental illness? Yes, many individuals who file disability benefits with the social security administration do so on the basis of a psychiatric or psychological mental illness. The standard for being approved, of course, is the same. The illness must be disabling and prevent you from effectively working at a past job or at any other job.
Can you win disability for only certain impairments, or on the basis of any impairment?
Answer: The Social Security Administration's disability evaluation system does not focus on a claimant's diagnosis, but, rather, on the functional limitations a claimant has. In other words, the name of the condition is not the chief consideration. How the condition "affects and limits: the indiviual is the primary concern. So, yes, disability benefits can be won on the basis of nearly any condition provided that the condition is sufficiently limiting.
As these hypothetical examples show, disabling conditions can take a wide variety of forms.
"Shoulder injury/surgery prevents me from doing past employment of 22 years. I have ddd in my back as well as sciatic nerve trouble in both hips and legs. I have had surgery on both hands for carpal tunnel"
"Have had manic depression episodes, beginning 12 years ago, requiring hospitalization and shock treatments. Currently have a pelvic and lower extremity bone infection and Reynaud's."
"Stroke, Heart Attack, liver disease. Stroke left me paralazed and affected my balance. I can not walk without a walker. The left side came back but is about 50%."
