I'm fucked I think, to put it frankly. Still haven't had anybody willing to help me. And I contacted the generic one just called "disability action advocates" who I assume most people use. They told me I would have 0% chance of ever getting disability in my current state because I am not physically handicapped. They said social security doesn't care about "small" mental issues like anxiety or stuttering. They also told me I would need piles of medical history to even have a small chance, which I basically have a couple of medical records involving these in my life. I mean, there's nothing medically that can be done for stuttering. So do I just need to go to the doctor every month to have them note that I stutter or something? They basically told me that they may consider my case after I have 5 months of consecutive medical records. So I will not be able to do the appeal here if my bad luck continues. I'll continue checking around, but this is looking very bleak. That one nice place I mentioned earlier never responded, after I contacted them again. The assistant just told me she was going to show her boss, then never replied again. I guess I can contact them again.
