Second video for patients scheduled for a Social Security Consultative Examination for their disability application. How to describe your problems and your difficulties working. Pitfalls and mistakes to avoid to have the best chance of your Social Security Disability application being approved. When to ask for a psychological evaluation.
Work related abilities: sit, stand, walk, lift, carry, handle objects, speak, travel, understand, remember, concentrate, interact socially, and adapt.

I appreciate the videos and content you've created here. I am a provider and was recently hired to do CEs. I want to be able to provide accurate information. Thank you for sharing your experience and knowledge.

Possible secret meaning of "I can't do anything".
"I cannot do the recreational activities that I enjoy most. I cannot dance the way that I want to. " Unless you are professional dancer or performing in a musical that requires you to sing, dance, and act on stage as a professional, it is not work related. It is merely a personal frustration.

At my disability exam I was only asked how long can I stand up in which I replied 30 minutes Max they looked at the problem area and that was it.. we didn't talk or anything it was strictly business 🤔

Thank you so much for clearly walking through the process. This helps me know what to expect and feel much less anxious going in!

Thank you, I've had Myalgic Encephalomyelitis (undiagnosed) since childhood (maybe infancy).

A.D.H.D. & hormonal issues.

In 2020 I contracted Covid-19 which led to Longhaul Covid & worsening symptoms of ME/CFS.

All I was trying to do is make it through each work week until retirement.

I appreciate the information on what to expect (exam wise) as I've applied for SSDI at the suggestion of my Longhaul Covid Doctor & am at the Hearing Level of the process.

Thanks again & Happy 2023!

Work related issues only. I can’t believe people think ed is a work related issue. No mris, explain how problem effects work. Psycological exam, must effect ability to work. Credibility, tell the truth. Don’t exaggerate, be honest. Don’t say you can’t do anything! Don’t say, I hurt everywhere. Don’t say you can’t remember, but then recite medical history. Don’t come in stoned! Very helpful, can I request you for my exam, haha. Larry

Wait. This guy is a exam doctor and he's making videos about how to get approved for disability

They didn't want to see my paperwork or my medications! They said they had all the information already, well the paperwork they sent me told me to bring them. This was a mental exam. I have anxiety and panic disorder and PTSD. I'm 58 and was on SSI before my late wife became a Nurse. She took her life in 2016 and daughter OD'd from heroin in, 2013. They'll deny me and say i can drive and talk

Stretch pants work pretty good as well, so I found.

Greetings! Great video. How do they create an rfc for a mental health claim vs psychical claims? Thanks

[Falling_Star_Catcher]

So if I am truthful when I say I do not drink or use any recreational drugs at all, the doctor will likely assume I am lying??

Is having MS for 30 years a good reason ?

[samibarnes]

Will ptsd bipolar depression and nonepileptic seizures get you approved for disability

Hello, Mr.Foster.
I am contacting you to discuss a career in the social security field.

I would like to apply for a valid USA government position.

So, how can I apply for such a position?
