Poof. I just went up in smoke so must choose words carefully and not rant. The genuine sufferers like you have been lost in the teeming WAVES of fakers who overwhelm the system, and the system seems to attract workers who are not *just* hardened by cynisisnm, they never had a clear view of thier job in the first place. ( my spelling becomes shot when stressed- please excuse. It's not even a matter of going back and correcting- I sometimes flatly cannot find the correct way. ) Not long ago, someone contacted me to write thier f*#ing FAKE blurb for them, for thier SSI claim. They fully stated to me it was full of crap- they said they thought I wrote well- could do something persuasive, would I 'help'? WHAT?????? No idea on the planet why this person thought I would participate in this ploy- we're pretty mainstream here, my husband works his backside off daily, bills get paid religiously, play by the rules, etc. I'd helped them write JOB blurbs in the past- many many many of them, so I guess they thought this was one more? They'd quit feeling it was thier responsibility to get the hell out of bed and go to work like the rest of the world, like my husband, like most people. Some people cannot-like you. The fakers- for every genuine, quietly suffering person there is a noisy, clammering, self-indulgent whiner using up resources and disallowing your voice and pain to be heard. Makes me crazy. I HOPE your advocate can be- the fakers have the energy to pursue this stuff, since they really are NOT flattened by anything.
I do hope you're able to be heard, above the other noise made by those who wish to use the system, and people like THIS guy, who wish to discount the possibility of your pain. Hang in there.
