My mom has been pushing the issue of applying for disability for a while and since the Obamacare insurance deadline is coming up, she decided that it's the perfect time to put in the application, even though it takes five months to start paying out anyhow.
While we were at the lawyer's office, my mom asks about what would happen if we were to move once it was instated and tells him that I am applying to graduate school. Of course, this results in a question on his side: is she really capable of keeping up with school? If so, then why not work?
He asked further questions about where I went to school and what I studied, and commented on the fact that English was a useless degree, and I explained very hastily and passionately that literature was the one thing that I can actually do and if I were to be able to work at the same job for a reasonable amount of time, it would be in this field.
But of course his questions have made me doubt myself. Am I capable? I've been struggling with reading comprehension, memory, and attention issues. I had a bit of a crisis, but I guess we'll see.
