@backwardshatbarrister: If the judge asks, “Why can’t you work?” they’re not asking for a list of your diagnoses. They’re asking how your medical conditions prevent you from performing a full-time job, 8 hours a day, 5 days a week. That’s a huge difference. The strongest answers focus on functional limitations—what you can’t do, how long you can do it, how often you need breaks, and why you couldn’t sustain competitive employment. That’s what Social Security is really evaluating. Follow for more tips on how to prepare for your Social Security disability hearing.

Because of my severe and widespread pain, I am in no way a reliable employee. Every day looks different for me and I need to be adapt each day depending on how I'm feeling.. Some days I can't get out of bed, other days I can do a small load of dishes and shower. I need to change positions from sitting to laying, to elevating my feet about every 30 minutes. I only sleep about 3-4 hours a night because of pain which worsens my brain fog and I can't stay on task.

The correct answer is. I can work in a perfect world, but they haven’t invented the job that takes in all my disabilities.

Chronic heart failure, with a genetic protein disorder that doesn’t have a cure yet but waiting for trial meds to be available in December 2026 in the uk. Hyperlipidemia type 2, i already got a message from a genetic disease company that deals with this complex condition, lipoproteins and pcos both are genetically inherited. Managing all my meds is a lot more than a full time job. Plus the doctors appointments and chronic fatigue goes with shortness of breath, I got diagnosed with a lot of conditions by social security disability. Most are heart related, still getting more diagnosis every week but boy under social security disability yet. More doctors I see the closer I am to manage my own life’s well being. Thats what my doctors are planing for me.
