Plan ahead. It's a long, drawn-out process. So prepare for it first and expect a year minimum to get all the paperwork, etc... Praying you receive help! You can always change your mind about going on it but with the length of time involved I'd start sooner than later. I know they say fibro isn't degenerative but I'm not sold on that notion. Mine seems to get worse the longer I've had it. That being said, a year is a long time and a lot can happen. I waited to long for help. My advice...sooner the better!

You can apply for SSDI with the help of an attorney who specializes in disability law. I was terminated from my job due to my disability. I went on unemployment. I was approved for SSDI on my first try six months later. I had to be unable to work for six months in order for SSDI to start. SSDI uses your records from what you earned the previous three years. Good luck!

ASAP
