[QUOTE="BusynMember, post: 539031, member: 1550"] Actually (and I didn't re-read all the threads to find out if this is one of her diagnosis.), if she has bipolar plus severe dyslexia she could end up with disability and rightly so. I was told, when I applied (and got it on the first attempt) that bipolar is one of those red flags that almost always gets disability if there is proof you have it. Of course, this was in my state and only one professional who works for disability told me this, but I did want to pass it along. I was told that people with bipolar have so many anger issues and work related problems that they are way up there on being able to get Disability. Of course, there are a lot of people diagnosed with bipolar who don't really have it and can function just fine an d some who are stable and never apply for disability because they don't need it...they have stable jobs and can handle them. Perhaps this child is not as capable of this college class or of working as you think? I could be way out out to lunch here, but maybe she is afraid to even try because she struggles so much and bosses are not kind or sympathetic to slower employees unless the person is coming to them from a vocational rehab. Maybe she feels that the Graphics Arts course will be too hard for her. Maybe she feels like she is just like Mr. Wonderful. Could be many things going on here. I had so many learning problems combined with mood disorders that I got fired from every job I tried to do for many, many years. And I was terrified to get a job because I just knew I'd be fired. Maybe that's why she is with such a loser. Sadly, she may see herself as the same as he is. Again, these are just thoughts which may not be even close to true. [/QUOTE]
