I have a cousin who went through the process. if your disability is still pending, you already have food stamps then? my cousin went through the pending phase for 5 or more months before he got the decision on disability. he was denied, but approved for SSI and gets like $700 a month for...ever, unless his condition changes. after three years his medicaid turns to medicare. with SSI he lost all most all of his food stamp allowance. all the best really, sorry about the joke. just trying to give you a laugh. all the best

That's good man. Every bit helps. After you get your decision :thumb: you probably already know, but the more expenses you have the more they will give you. So if you're living with a relative make sure you let SS know how much the fixed amount you're paying for room and board and the portion of utilities you help pay.... :)

i'm sorry to hear about your troubles, dubs
what happened with the job exactly? don't be too hard on yourself, it may not be that you are too dysfunctional, it could be a variety of things and maybe it just wasn't the right job at the right place with the right people.
i know you're feeling terrible and pessimistic right now, but maybe in a couple of days you can feel a bit stronger and try to find something else?
you found that job and it didnt work out, but maybe the next one will.

all the best and i hope that things work out for you

You'll find something else, don't give up. It will probably be difficult, and suck for a while when you do start working again, if you haven't worked in a long time. That's to be expected; don't think you're too dysfunctional.

Hey, if you have a car and a pretty clean driving record you could deliver pizza. That's what I do. Apply in person and talk to the general manager. You might have to take a drug test, though, so, you know, lay off for a while before you apply, if that's potentially an issue for you, not that I know.
