Yes. remember one of my diagnoses was severely and emotionally disturbed, . now that can mean anything really, but i had brain damage from my my bio mother. and i needed ekg's and stuff. It's also one of the reasons i qualify for aid that you have to be 65 and over to get or disabled in a profound way. I don't know the full extent, but you guys have all guessed for a long time i am probably mentally handicapped in a deeper way. I'm not insulted.

I don't say this to be mean, but have you been deemed developmentally disabled? Bad as it seems, that could open quite a few doors for you help wise. It would also help if you had a guardian ad litum, someone who could help advocate for you and protect your rights.

Please open your EARS and shut your mouth and stop reading what you want to read.. I am not admiting to breaking a law, i said, that it'd be breaking the law to not need SSI and claim i don't.

HOWEVER, I DO. I am legally disabled and I have every right to the benifits I am getting, and it's not fraud. I have been evaluated by professionals and deemed disabled. THEY, NOT YOU get to decide who's in need of benifits. You don't like something i said and you're going off nasty things other people have said and you're showing your ass.


I will once again tell people to put your money where your mouth is. I will show you the papers prooving I am disabled i offered to on the other side, because i hate the idea that one person thinks I am scamming a system. I and intitled to what i get. I have always said that, and the only opinion that matters is those who know the truth.

This is breaking federal law. You can make up to $100 on SSI I believe if you report it, and then it begins scaling off of benefits. The second sentence there insinuates that you don't tell the government that you are making a living and don't need their benefit... that is illegal.

Let's just give you the benefit of the doubt on medical testing, as an EKG measures your heart's sinus rhythm and say it was an EEG which measures your alpha, beta, theta and delta waves. That's actually a test for seizure and sleep disorders; it would never show brain damage. Brain damage is seen by a CT, but what you're talking about is more or less an MRI because if you're saying brain damage conclusive with mental conditions, you're actually talking about a uneven posterior ventricular formations between the hemispheres and an overall lack of grey matter. That's for schizophrenia; you claim to have bipolar--I digress the former sounds much more likely.

This is blatantly angry, but coherent. However, the US government does not give papers disclosing the diagnosis leading to disability. In fact, you as the beneficiary could not call and even have that information given to you. Emotionally disturbed is not a medical diagnosis; nor is it a qualifying condition for disability.

Now the bipolar can be disabling, but you don't even exhibit that exclusively as per DSM criteria, so we're all basically listening to your crap with the alleged "proof" in your hand if we come to get it despite the fact that it doesn't actually exist. There is nothing physically wrong with you that confines you to a bed other than lethargy and perhaps avolition. Those are signs of a schizotypal disorder.

i have an idea for a new biz i am going to go door 2door and take peoples junk offa them an then sell it. I'll call it my rags to riches story how i conquered the world picking up trash, AND saved some of the environment and i;ll get fit doing it too.

i scavenged bits o guaranteed money by finding copper wire people threw away. and i found broken vaccumes an stuff i can scavenge for parts and sell the parts and the scrap metal A1 metals buys scrap mettle and copper of people.

no but seriously stuff you can scavenge on your own man power and sell for profit is a great way of making money. and a lot of people throw away a lot of great stuff, or recyclables all because they can't be arsed to deal with it. Why can't their lainess be your financial gain.

I plan on walking all over the neighborhood every day knocking on doors and introducing myself and I will even dress nice like i am on a jobinterview have a few little examples to show them of what i am doing and pitch my story.

i made 5 dollars gaurenteed collecting the aluminum they threw away in the form of soda cans, plastic bottles and glass. 100 percent free profit. and guaranteed.

i wanna buy the homeless hotdogs an stuff with all the coupons i scavenged i can't use.

i don't qualify to get to most jobs. This is all on foot , or with Daddy's help and it's not dependent on getting to work on time or not being able to afford the bus or any of the hassle of a traditional job. much funner too. I am beyond words being able to say how proud i am of my ingenity think outside boxness and creativity, in seeing beauty aid and profit where others only see junk an toss away. that's very precious in this everything is disposable who cares attitude today.


I think the key here is that you don't qualify to get most jobs (and that was paraphrased due to the fact that you don't have a ride). That is being unemployed, not disabled. In fact, everything here exhibits that you CAN work, but choose not to. It's actually illegal to volunteer as a disabled person technically, as it demonstrates behavior contradictory to that which you swore under an oath of perjury.

Actually, you've only said one truthful thing that is clear in all of your posts, "I'm severely emotionally disturbed." We could all empathize with that. Regardless, you seem to act above the law and are most ungrateful for the benefits which you receive. SSI means you never paid into SS, and you're getting this out of the nearly 42% taxes I had to pay on my former income; the same taxes most people on here pay. Now I can't speak for everyone, and granted I had to make a claim on SSDI, however... happy to pay my taxes. I realize that sounds incredibly self-serving at the moment, but I was always more socialistic. We should be taking care of our elderly, young and disabled (mentally and physically).

What is disturbing is the fact that you're displaying abilities with all of this that are not consistent with federal disability. That means the ability to perform unskilled labor. It seems you can do that, but don't want to listen to anyone (go figure from your postings). Lack of resources is a major reason why homeless people are homeless and not disabled. Being able to go door to door and proposing that you have a lawsuit demonstrate coherent thinking, regardless of the intellect behind it.

Nonetheless, what I've been saying since my first post regarding you is that you have resources that will cover inpatient medical care. You desperately need that to get all things sorted out. If it is bipolar alone, then the most severe delusional manifestations are present and it is most definitely not managed at the current status quo. That setting will also allow all medical conditions to be examined.

Inmate, you cannot and should not suppose to diagnose ANYONES mental or physical issues,even worse judge it as the only possible reason. Its ugly, its ignorant and has as much chance of being helpful as an astray on a motorbike.
While i dont disagree on many of your points.....you are attacking her because of your perceptions.
Snot cool man...many of us know lgh from her long posting history. Some are snide n ugly, most are helpful, some are sick of it and some dont give a shit.
I for one will not see someone like lgh fucked over by judgements like yours by keeping quiet.

I believe inmate was referencing your answer to angelika. I may be wrong. Basically your answer does support breaking the law.
According to the SSA website...any income change has to be reported to the agency. Any income change. To withhold that info is illegal.
Even if you think of it as petty cash. To not claim it is illegal.

inmate - you sure are giving out a lot of medical advice and armchair diagnoses in some of these current threads. If you are in fact a medical professional, I'm sure you know how foolish and potentially dangerous it is to diagnose the physical and mental health conditions of people you have never met based on a few message board posts.

Except for this whole thread where you admit you're committing SSI fraud by failing to truthfully report your living situation so your boyfriend's income won't be factored into your SSI payments:

Foolishness is being wrong. I've always cited that it's conjecture and not an official Dx. I've always attempted to point to the proper health care facilitators in respective regions. What seems more foolish is telling someone with a severe mental condition that they're fine, or telling someone with a clinical tachycardia that it's just about exercising. Blind conjecture from the choir is advice, but because of respective education one should simply let potential hazards go unchecked?

But people like you will get them in the right direction, right? So I digress--I'll retire.

I must have missed that part in the post above where you told her she isn't exhibiting the signs of bipolar disorder, despite this being something she's officially been diagnosed and treated for.

We know LGH. We know she isn't well - no one is saying otherwise. In fact, in this and many of her other threads people have gently prompted her to check in with her doctors about various issues. That's a long way from the irresponsible act of telling her that her diagnoses don't exist, or are wrong.

Athena, I understand what you're saying here, but it's not necessarily irresponsible to question her diagnosis. I'm sure you'll agree that misdiagnosis of mental health issues happens with some regularity. I'm sure we can also agree that psych meds can and do have side effects that can mimic other disorders. How many antidepressants say right on the package insert that they can cause depression, suicidal thoughts, anxiety, and other problems?

And you and I both know that LGH isn't exactly good at communicating, let alone advocating for herself. It's certainly possible that she's been misdiagnosed because she isn't mentally competent enough to give the psych what he or she needs to deliver a proper diagnosis. It's also possible that she has multiple mental health issues that are co-morbid with bipolar disorder but which aren't being treated because the psych stopped at one diagnosis.

Commenting that the way she describes her symptoms or the behavior displayed in her posts is more commonly associated with a different mental illness isn't necessarily irresponsible. For all we know, she needs to be told this so she can get a second opinion, more testing, different medication, or some combination thereof. Inmate is new and isn't as familiar with LGH's cornucopia of mental illnesses as the rest of us who have been here for awhile, but his opinion isn't necessarily invalid either.

I have added disclaimers to my suggestion on the pain thread to walk and do yoga. It was too late to edit my original post, so I quoted it.

I'd like to hear what your training taught you about morbid obesity and pain - perhaps you could post it on that thread. When I've been 30 # overweight I've had pain; I can't imagine how being over 200 # overweight would feel.

Inmate, how about if we point out that if you go through the rigors of medical school, you certainly don't qualify as disabled? I don't question that you went or that you learned something. However, I do know that you don't learn enogh oabout medical specialties like psychiatry to be spouting off the way you are. I also know that the Social Security Administration would question your disability if they knew you were able to attend medical school even if just for the sake of learning.

So tell me, how does that shoe feel on the other foot?

You are new, and really know nothing about LGH. She has been on this site for quite a while, and while her communicaton skills are still lacking, you are very unaware of the progress she HAS made. She could barely string two sentences together at the beginning. She suffered childhood trauma you couldn't even contemplate understanding with your limited education and total lack of real time experience with applying your knowledge from anywhere but the armchair.

Does SL make a valid point about the liklihood of co-morbidity and incomplete diagnosis? Definitely. LGH sadly does not have people in her life who have the knowledge or ability to help her. All she has in the way of intelligent help are the people on this board. She likely has no idea what title someone in a lab coat held, whether it is technician, radiologist , er doctor or social worker. She likely doesn't always fully understand what they tell her and has trouble communicating the questions many of us would naturally ask.

Can you imagine having not finished high school, having a borderline IQ and trying to understand let alone navigate through a system with no help from someone who understands and can help you navigate? I doubt you can. You have had the audacity to comment on advice given here and elsewhere and have even in one post talked about how giving advice without the proper license is illegal, yet you, with no license feel it is appropriate for you to do so.

Your comments to LGH WOULD in a court of law constitute medical advice. Oh and I do have necessary education and license to make such statments. Meanwhile, the couple of psych classes you took in med school in no way qualify you to even contemplate LGH's mental health status. Osidegirl, who is licensed, educated, trained and experienced in such thing knows to tread carefully in that regard and she know much more of LGH's history than you do.

So now that we have cleared up YOUR fraud commision with the federal government as well as your lack of credentials, perhaps , since you wish so much to try to help people and have time on your hands, you can research some programs in her area and advocate a little in her behalf.

I have talked with LGH quite a bit privately, and know a great deal about her situation. However, I am not in a location or have themeans to do more than I currently do. If you really want to help, learn how to decipher her communications (not too diificult) and offer contructive advice instead of accusations and critism.

LafayetteLady, if you have the legal training to know what does or doesn't constitute fraud, aren't you then complicit in LGH's fraud? You should have reported her long ago since she has admitted she is lying to the state to get increased SSI payments and you know it.

I have no particular bias for or against Inmate, but your statements are just as ignorant since you have no idea what his credentials are or when his disability was approved. For all you know, his condition is degenerative and he may have received his training prior to becoming disabled.

I think you need to take a step back and reexamine your own position. You're behaving more like an enabler than someone who is genuinely concerned for LGH's well-being. LGH has not improved since I joined in 2007. She cycles in and out of coherence and it's obvious her mental illness is not well-managed. She would be better off in a group home or assisted living facility but, instead, she comes here where people like you coddle her, encourage her, and tell her what to do to play the system just enough to keep limping along in her current situation. You should be reporting her fraud so the state will investigate and maybe she'll finally get the help she really needs.

Just stop.

SL,

Actually when LGH first joined, she couldn't spell anything or complete sentences. There has been a great deal of improvement.

No, I'm not the least bit complicent in fraud especially since this is an anonymous forum board

As for inmate, he specifically stated he attened medical school AFTER his illness caused his disability, so yes, by his words I do know, and if you read his posts, you would as well.

As for LGH's problems being poorly managed, I have stated that over and over, both on these boards and in private messages to her. I have also stated her need to be in a group home or long term inpatient. I have told her that her parents and james inhibit her progress and though it would be difficult, in the long run, a group home would help her be more independent.

As many have stated already, "income" doesn't need to be reported until it reaches a certain dollar amount. Further, sporadic income that cannot be counted on a regular basis is a non issue. SSI pays the smallest amount of income and the possibility (not guarantee) of maybe $50 dollars a month is not something Social Security cares about.

Should LGH be neglecting to inform them of James living with her? No. But then again, hopefully she won't be neglected that in time because she will realize that James presents a huge stumbling block to her moving forward.

Sadly, SSI does not provide a person with enouhg income to support themselves. We have a system that by its very flaws almost forces people to bend the rules. Considering James doesn't even make enough to support himself, less than $300 a week, and LGH isn't getting $900 a month, no, I don't begrud the need to maintain the income.

So many people love to talk about how she can and should get some kind of full time job and stop "milking" the system, while in the same breath talk about how her health, mental and physical is so severely mis managed.. yet, it seems not to occur to anyone that the fast food or factory assembly job that would take away her SSI payments would also take away her medical benefits, leaving her with no medication, no psychiatrists, no docttors. That would certainly not be beneficial to her at all.



So, while it is all fine and good for you to sayy I coddle her (which I far from do if you have any readincomprehension at all), its really ignorant when as you see above, you are far from know the facts.
