Disability Benefits for Bipolar Disorder
Bipolar disorder (also referred to as manic depression) can be a devastating mental disorder. Sufferers can not only be robbed of their capacity to work and support themselves, but also to enjoy many of the most meaningful and rewarding aspects of normal life.
At Shifrin Newman Smith Inc., our bipolar disorder disability attorneys understand just how debilitating and demoralizing it can be to live with this condition. We'd like you to understand that we can help. Our law firm is passionate about this work and has been solely dedicated to it since our doors first opened in 1985. In the years since, we have helped thousands of Ohio residents.
See how we can help you. There's no risk. If we don't win, you don't pay any attorney fee. It's just that simple. For a free consultation with an attorney, call 877-230-5500 or contact us online.
Help your own cause. Don't let bipolar disorder keep yourself or a loved one from trying to address the problem. Get appropriate medical treatment. Follow the doctor's advice. Take the medications as prescribed. If you or your loved one do not, you may not be able to obtain the disability benefits you need.
Symptoms of Bipolar Disorder
Bipolar disorder often goes undiagnosed or gets misdiagnosed for many years before a sufferer or their loved ones know what they're dealing with. Some of the various symptoms the Social Security Administration (SSA) will look for in your medical evidence include:
- Delusions or hallucinations
- Paranoid thinking
- Hyperactivity, decreased need for sleep
- Poor judgment and illogical thinking
- Agitated speech patterns
- Inflated self-esteem
- Feelings of guilt or worthlessness
- Thoughts of suicide
Getting the Medical Care You Need
The longer your established record of treatment is with a mental health care provider, the better your chances will be to win a disability claim for bipolar disorder. We work with your doctor to make sure your condition is properly described and documented. If you are having trouble affording treatment or don't currently have a doctor you're comfortable with, we can refer you to qualified providers in your area and may even be able to put you in touch with free or low-cost medical resources.
