I'm sinking so fast. Going weeks without talking to anyone. Feeling like I have done everything, and the only things I still need to do I am incapable of in my current state. Friends are mad at me for not leaving the house or answering calls. I'm out of money and I got a paper saying I was sued for $4,600 for a $400 credit card 3 years ago and they are trying to collect and want to take everything I have left, which is only my car and a thread of sanity. This was not just a collection notice, I was sued in court without knowing about it years ago and now they want me to list what I own and garnish wages (none).

I can only work for myself but my mental and physical medical states are so bad I can not anymore. I have no insurance, no official medical history to get SSI. I have tried once and hit an impassible roadblock getting diagnosis. I have a child and she is the only reason I am still alive, but I have gone from having her shared time to only weekends because of my current state and relationship with her mother and her husband, my ex-best friend from childhood.

I have always been the stable balanced person. I was the person people came to when they needed help. And I still I am, I am not gifted with the softening of depression, I am not crying or saying poor me, I am just watching everything get worse with open eyes. I can't do everything myself right now, and I have no access to help.

did you appeal the SSI rejection twice and get your day in court? often, before court, the soc sec admin will pay for an evaluation to get the evidence you need. they did for a friend of mine. a lawyer will help you, getting paid only part of the settlement if you win.
