[QUOTE="DammitJanet, post: 539046, member: 1514"] Getting disability with bipolar is more difficult than one would think but then just getting disability is difficult. I believe the turn down rate is somewhere in the percentage rate of 70% for the first time. It took me over 3 years to get approved for disability and I have both bipolar and physical disabilities. There is a list of things that are supposed to be "shoe in's" for approval and if you went down the list, I had like 5 out of the first top 15. I still got denied until we went to hearing. Though it does seem like kids just out of school are getting it somewhat easier. People in their 30's and 40's have a harder time and then over 50 and into 60 it gets easier especially if your education doesnt mesh well going into another career. [/QUOTE]
