Guest guest Posted February 28, 2005 Report Share Posted February 28, 2005 I have COPD and have drawn SSD since 1998. I belong to many support groups as I have diabetes, CHF atril fib, gerd fibromyalgia, hyatil hernia and a few lessser diseases. On all the lists there are a lot more people fighting for disability than getting it. I would prefer not to have a hose stuck up my nose 24/7 making it sore and bloody and be able to work. Anyone who thinks disability is a free ride on the government is mistaken. We have paid into this myself for 40 years. It was not just handed over to the poor ole lunger. AS for mental patients faking it, it would be much easier to fake a lot of things before that. As far as I am concerned mental illness is the WORSE disease there is. At least we know our name, and the people we associate with. I think nothing would be worse than not having full faculties and prey the poor lost souls who have lost it that they do not realize it and find peace in their lonely world.
