I went to both a shrink and a regular doctor. The psychiatrist diagnosed me with Social Anxiety just by listening to me talk and I often missed meetings because I would forget what time they were. He thought I was avoiding him, so the last meeting I actually went to he got the ball rolling for disability checks.

I used to get them, then a friend got me a job at Toys R Us that gave me more money and it was late night. Just by accepting the job the checks stopped coming. I still have to take the pills though.

Chell is a test subject at Aperture Science Laboratories, which is ran by GLaDos, who is obsessed with scientific testing. Wheatley, the little ball robot is in charge of the Aperture Science testing personnel as they are sleeping between testing subjects. In the beginning of Portal 2, the system breaks down and Chell happened to be asleep for a long period of time. Wheatley eventually finds her, and suggests that she may have brain damage (the mute lunatic part is later in the game). Wheatley helps the player through the first part of the game, and is more comedy relief than help for the first bit. I won't spoil the rest of the game, but I recommend playing it if you get the chance.

Someone offers a somewhat reasonable solution and you think they are trolling, because that idea is obscene to most of /jp/. Your comment just shows that you have tricked yourself into believing that the life you live is what being alive is about: living off of others money while gazzing at loli hetnai/computer moniter/anime, all the while achieveing nothing but pleasure or satisfaction that only lasts for a few moment until a new figure/game/pay check comes. You are not happy: you are living short burts of excitement, just as a child does. Most children grow up and realise that they have a larger meaning in life and that there is good, love, truth. I am Otaku, but I am also a Man. There has never been a lot of people on /jp/, so most of us here interact with each other through threads and posts.

That's where you're wrong, Anonymous-kun. I've worked all my life and never gone on any kind of welfare and quite frankly I don't really mind my taxes being diverted to /jp/sies so they can take it easy. Obviously, this doesn't work if everyone cashes out and tries to get in on it and there's no realistic way of pruning the wheat from the chaff but I figure at some point, having spent the majority of my life wrestling with pretty severe and amply documented depression and panic attacks, I'm gonna flip out and need to say fuck it.

Also, failure is highly subjective. I'm well aware that many people living the life I do now for so long would want to kill themselves. I am "lucky" in a sense to be able to enjoy it as well as I do, but then I guess I would not have chosen it otherwise. Seriously though, I'm not sure why you're so sure I'm going to "fail", besides needing to think that to justify your own lifestyle. Which is completely stupid and unnecessary. You live your life for your own reasons, and I live mine. Obviously what works for one of us may not work or the other.

I can imagine a few circumstances where I might wind up fucked, but they're far from a certainty. I can see just as easily myself staying like this happily for the rest of my life. Obviously not everyone could do this, but I guess I am blessed with circumstances that make it possible.

I just applied for SSI/D because I am fed up with dealing with my issues. Unlike some people I have worked, despite my problems, and I've tried hard to keep my head above water, go to college, ect, but with the economy the way it is, what few jobs that were out there for me are gone.

The list:

DSPS, delayed sleep phase syndrome, which essentially means my circadian rhythm is fubar. I don't just go to sleep at 5-7am, any little fuck-up like I get sick or oversleep sends me spinning around the clock.

Gender Dysphoria: Being trans is a choice, feeling how I do is not. I didn't ask to be born with a female brain or to feel like I have my whole life. On a side note, beginning HRT has gotten rid of my high blood pressure, my IBS symptoms AND is growing my scalp hair back. SO I'll take the good with the bad here.

Short Sighted/deaf in one ear: Minor and not noteworthy on their own but they cipher out a couple more opportunities I could of had.

I didn't list depression, because I view it as a symptom of the above mentioned problems. WHich it is, I don't buy the idea that depression is a disease in of itself. There is always a underlying issue.

What exactly makes it so "obvious"? What exactly is it you expect to happen to me? I'll get kicked out of here? A pretty bold assertion, since you know nothing about myself or my family. My parents will die? Well, it will probably happen at some point, but I think with inheritances and the like I'd probably be alright for a while. (Not that I'm hoping for such a thing to happen or anything like that, but I certainly don't think I'd be on the street if it ere to happen.) So what is it that you can see that I can't? Or is it really just the fact that you refuse to accept that a person could live life without putting forth the effort you do?

Especially when the instinct is so clearly obsolete.

But in today's world, continuing to want to gather more and more just leads to a person living an unsatisfying life.

This thread is kinda disappointing. I didn't read all the posts complaining about the op on his ability but came to give information instead.

OP, that $2,000 check is back payment and your regular monthly checks will be less than that. Depending if you're living alone or what information you give about your living status it can be between 300-700$ Depending on what programs you signed up for. They don't want you saving up thousands of dollars worth of SSI/SSD money so you aren't allowed to have more than 2k grand laying around in your account, but you've got like a a year or two I believe before they ask you to spend that entire 2k back payment check you got.


You can do direct deposit with your checks and even when they request your back statement information for various reasons(they do) the statements usually, don't give that kind of detailed information.
