#total permanent disability mental illness

[kneptoon]

This might get some peeps mad but like. Is it really worth the effort figuring out the niche subtypes and cocktails of disorders you have? Is it really worth the struggle to find the right collection of clinical labels to fit yourself into? is it really worth the effort to know if some specific symptoms of yours are indicative of autism or adhd or ptsd or ocd or anxiety or whatever? Or is it just that you are a nuanced, neurodiverse person existing under capitalism, a system which has inherently traumatized and disabled you?

It’s great if you’ve found pride or community in your diagnosis, but always remember: diagnosis was not made for that.

It was never made for community or identity labels. It was made to categorize, to treat, to suppress, to segregate, to control, and to MAKE MONEY. Psychiatry is and forever has been an industry that exists under capitalism and colonialism, and is deeply rooted in eugenics, racism, queerphobia, and misogyny.

NEVER FORGET THAT. REMEMBER THAT ALWAYS.

The next time you start chatting about incredibly technical clinical terms and pop-psychology words, REMEMBER the autistic children who were abused, gaslighted, and programmed using those same words.

The next time you take the findings of a clinical research paper as gospel, REMEMBER the women and the black/indigenous people of color who were wrongfully incarcerated because of that research.

The next time you feel thankful for your psych meds, REMEMBER the survivors of psych prisons who have been permanently disabled from being overmedicated against their will, and the pharmaceutical companies who profited off of their suffering.

Capitalism WANTS to disable you. It WANTS you to be mentally ill, to think there’s something wrong with yourself. So that it can force productivity out of you, and make money off of you.

Like, I totally understand the researching and collecting of all the little mental illnesses itches that little autistic part of our brains. But in the long run, all it does is perpetuate the over-pathologizing of mental health. It does nothing for Mad liberation or abolishing the MH industrial complex.

I’m not saying to never use words ever, or to never seek treatment. Because clearly, the MH industry helps many. BUT IT ALSO HARMS MANY. IT KILLS MANY AND IT ERASES MANY.

NEVER FORGET THAT.

REMEMBER IT.

REMEMBER IT ALWAYS.

[obesogen]

You introduce yourself to someone

"Hi, so-and-so, I'm ..." and you think that you say your name,

but your plump hands, slightly sweaty,

and your swollen forearms, encroaching on small wrists,

your upper arms role-poly like the Michelin man,

and your wide, sloppy, drooping gut,

which is in theory fully covered by a shirt

barely tho;

your deep, wide belly button visible through thin fabric, stretched taut, 12x getting too small,

and let's not forget your double chin,

your soft pillowy neck roll,

your dewlap, a perfectly closed collar of squishy fat that

your tiny features sink into–

these things say

hi so-and-so,

i'm super obese, morbidly obese, obese class III,

i'm permanently disabled by how fat i have become

i'm the fattest person you have ever had to speak to

i'm the fattest person you have ever seen in person

and not on the tv freak show

hi so and so, i'm severely mentally ill

hi so and so, i'm traumatized

hi so and so, i am addicted to food

hi so and so, i have no impulse control

hi so and so, i'm ... what's your name again?

you are no one, nothing,

all you are and all you can ever be is gloriously obese beyond the frenzied imaginings of our starving ancestors who carved the venus of willendorf

you are stuffed to the point of near-bursting; even the backs of your neck rolls are frosted with stretch marks. the body always finds somewhere to store fat, and with all the usual spots so filled to the brim, you notice eventually even your forehead is fat; a deposit of soft tissue that furrows above your brows, like a sharpei.

Not long after you got a second mobility aid for out in public, a powerchair with a capaciity of 1100 pounds and hydraulic suspension and tread on its 8 tires like a tank, you started using your old one around the house, always on the verge of breaking down under the additional 200 pounds you carry beyond its rated 500 pound capacity. Not long after, unthinkingly, you just stopped walking, out of sheer bone-idleness. You couldn't say when your last day on your feet was, you surrendered sooner than that day came, comfortably dependent.

Months later, you dimly attempt to recall when you last moved, standing, from one point in space to another. Until the last month, you could still, barely, haul yourself up using a bar to support and balance yourself. From being pushed up out of your powerchair with a forward lift, to the belly gathering momentum and sliding down, to you standing shakily and taking one shuffling step to reposition your body so you can transfer from one big chair to another big chair, and from one big chair to the big motorized bariatric hospital bed.

Now, just 20 pounds later, you can't move your blob body hardly at all below your greedy mouth with its greasy, parted, mouthbreathing lips and beyond your wriggling sausage link fingers. You cannot move any other part of your body without needing help. You are not to your knowledge paralyzed really in any way, you just shamelessly became too fat to lift your own arms, you press a button on a remote that must be attached to your fat hand since if you drop it you couldn't even retrieve it with a string, you are just that weak– so thoroughly inhabiting how obese you are through the total abdication of all decisions.

Once the support bar began to gather dust and was eventually packed away- you become adjusted to transfering from place to place using motorized cranes and winches, your fat slab form filling huge slings with tough straps, prone and helpless, drowning beneath countless rolls, lovingly oiled machinery creaking as it hefts your megafat body.

Your muscles are so weak and your limbs are so heavy. You still have the urge to to struggle and sweat to lift another treat to your bottomless pit of a stomach. You are estimated to be able to hold several gallons in there before feeling sick from fullness.

Most days you simply lie expectantly and grunt with your mouth open, eating everything you are given by any of your staff or acolytes, and sucking melted ice cream sludge from one tube, or chugging diet coke or (regular) mountain dew from 2 different (fountain) tubes.

Turns out there's more than irony to research suggesting artificial sweeteners like aspartame provoke intense cravings for actual sugar.

You are fat beyond reason. Only the most depraved massive, disabling, immobilizing obesity fetishists could find your tremendous doughy body, with a belly so outsized you must be buckled into powerchairs and scooters and even the shower chair. If you don't endure the humiliation of being buckled into the modern day litter which drags your fat around, your unwieldy pannus threatens to upset your vehicle, tipping you forward and pulling you down– you know you would be left on the floor gasping, unable to even sit up, defenseless, amorphous.

And besides,

you forgot your name anyway

years ago,

dont you remember? my

pitiful

swollen

hog.

Here's what I have for my speech that I'm going to give the judge so far. Content warning for severe medical neglect and suicide talk.

In 2015 to 2017, I had a VA disability rating for mental health at 70%. This means that I had a severely altered ability to work or attend school, this was later bumped up to 100% permanent and total disability as well as unemployability. Despite that, I attempted both work and school before physical disability got in my way. Both times, the fatigue, increased pain, and my heart conditions got in the way. I had hardly any standing ability and no ability to sit for extended periods of time. I was suicidal 24/7 because of the pain and fantasized about lighting myself on fire in the VA parking lot. That is no condition to work in.

I begged my job for accommodations because I was missing multiple days of work per week because of this pain and was told "we can only cut your hours, but because you are a full time worker we can only cut them to 32 hours a week" when I was able to work 24 hours max and had pain and suicidal ideation from the work I was able to do. I was throwing up 3 day old food and lost 60 lbs because the demands on my body were too much so my digestive system was shutting down.

I was being told that I wasn't trying hard enough, asked if I wanted to be sick. Told it was deconditioning. Told that i could go to the psych ward if I was suicidal from the pain but that my pain would not be treated. Now we know that I had severe mitochondrial myopathy, but then it was just traumatic. So traumatic that I now have difficulty getting medical care in emergencies. On top of my PTSD I was now paranoid and believed that my doctor wanted me to die. I wanted to die. I lost my friends and biological family because they were tired of listening to me panic about the lack of medical care, paranoia, and pain and believed I was making it up because of the lack of medical confirmation. This impacted my ability to work and has had permanent consequences toward my health and mental health.

Despite all of this I did everything right, I served my country until i could not. I attempted to attend school until I could not. I attempted employment and paid into the system until I could not. Each of these attempts damaged my health further and further and I attempted to find out why so that i could get back to work, but my 20s were wasted by incompetent doctors. I do not believe that i should be denied the benefits that i paid for, in both money as well as blood, sweat, and tears while serving my country. If there is a job that allows laying down the whole time, is not customer facing, allows frequent unplanned days off due to illness, is 20 hours a week or less, and pays more than the minimum social security counts as "gainful employment" please let me know. I would love to work it.

[omniseurs-blog]

I've been hearing recently from my brother and his GF that they're tired of being my parents.

It's hard to admit that you're not doing enough or that you don't take initiative or that you are, from an outside perspective, lazy. It's even harder to make permanent change and become better.

Yesterday I was proud to just shower and gargle some mouthwash, today the same reasons I haven't been showering or brushing my teeth bubble up. The bathroom door doesn't close all the way and I don't feel like it's private enough, I haven't done anything physical to "warrant a shower" (it's summer, it's hot, it's sweaty, I need to shower whether I see a reason or not), and "well I'm almost done with this task, I'll do it when I'm done", and then the task leads to another.

It's the same with any other thing, I don't clean the dishes because I'm not in the kitchen, because other people are in the kitchen, because it's not "mentally stimulating", because I just need to finish doing what I'm doing at the moment, because I'm tired, because...

The issue is me, the issue is I don't want to, the issue is I forgot, the issue is I'm busy, the issue is there's a rat in my brain that refuses to turn the wheel unless there's a giant chunk of cheese barely out of reach that it's convinced it can reach if it tries a little harder, and the cheese is missing for tasks that aren't seen as fun.

So how do I make this time different? How do I make this time fun? How do I make myself do it, never stop doing it, and want to do it more frequently?

Here's my current issue, if I stack habits like recommended, the only habits I have are waking up (around 11am-2pm), taking my meds (mostly around 12-4am), going to sleep (at inconsistent times, 1-6am), eating (at inconsistent times, sometimes skipping meals), and learning/doing hobbies (throughout the day). Anything else is on a day to day basis, sometimes missed for days or weeks on end, sometimes abandoned all together, no consistent time, no consistent schedule, no habitual reoccurrence.

I've tried stacking habits when I wake up, I managed to brush my teeth every morning for 2 weeks before the excuses piled up, the avoidance replaced the habit, and the guilt turned to "well, that's just how it is now". I've tried attaching a reward to it, but the reward became boring the same day it was added, I've tried switching rewards to playing video games, but the game became boring and I'm not interested in it as much as whatever I was actually interested in, I've tried switching it to "just doing anything else", but it felt like a punishment and I avoided it, I've tried switching it from a reward to trying to see it as a mandatory part of living, but my brain went "you're disabled, your style of living is different from normal", and lastly, I tried some of the advice in "atomic habits", repeating to myself "I am a clean person, I am healthy, I am not a smoker" and this is where I would say I am lost "because I tried everything"

But that's the thing, I am not lost. I am mentally ill, I do struggle with depression and disorganized behaviors. This is an ongoing problem. On top of that, I gave up over and over. I tried some of those only once, and after that first time, like many people do, made the mistake of "if it doesn't work once, it will NEVER work!", in the spirit of repeatedly blowing into a cartridge until it does work, that's almost never the case. Imagine having that mindset while learning to do a backflip or learning a martial art, or learning a sport, or learning to draw. It's either the way you did it, how quick you gave up, or the environment you were doing it in.

Here's my goals going forward

-try ANY of the methods again, ANY of them

-Stick with that specific method for at LEAST 30 days, not even necessarily 30 days in a row, but a total of 30 days

-if it doesn't work after 30 days, try ANOTHER method for at least 30 days

-slowly stack up habits, if it begins to crumble, remove a habit

-start a routine, go to sleep and wake up consistently, take medications consistently, and eat consistently for the bare minimum

-adapt as symptoms get better or worse

[eruverse]

So my Mongolia is based off of a few actual Mongolians I admire and like, and this post is going to be dedicated to them 🌞 they’re all public/famous figures, so please be rest assured as I would never divulge any private information of a random person!!

Anyway, my Mongolia isn’t a carbon copy of any of these people tho, but rather he is a culmination of many traits that I like to see in a person with key ones belonging to these people I made as a source of inspiration. To give a spoiler: Mongolia is wholesome because I think he is wholesome, I want him to be wholesome, and the people I based him off of are also all wholesome people. Not that he doesn’t have any fault whatsoever (I think he’s rather perfect tho) BUT even on top of those faults he is wholesome, okay?

I’m going to do key traits + a Mongolian as a source of inspiration.

1) High spirit + good naturedness + humor = this answer by Togi Chinbat on quora

I was immediately hooked with this answer, I love it so much ❤️

Anyway, that ‘Mongolians never gets depressed’ is just his opinion and likely made in pure humor, as well as the bit on ‘beating the first person you run into on the street’. Please never think that Mongolians just go up and beat a random person like that, that’s totally untrue!! They’re the same as everyone else!! Rather, I think this quora dude here just wants to show the high spirit Mongolians in general have (according to his opinion), even if his choice of words are kinda weird because it’s made in jest!!

I prob took ‘never gets depressed’ to a new height when it comes to characterizing Mongolia as an individual tho LOL but I have no remorse. He DOES feel down, but he prefers (and is able to) keep himself in high spirits because one, that's the mental state he prefers for himself, and two, he's too prideful to look as if he is in a slump. More on this pride later!!

I also chose to make Mongolia inherently hot-headed (even though it's controlled well; Mongolia is a relaxed person in appearance). Obviously not all Mongolians are like this tho, they all come in different shapes and shades like everyone else -- but @mongolmaral once told me, and I've seen some other Mongolians say also, that the name Mongol is thought to come from two words mönkh and gal which together means 'eternal fire'. I love this so much so I want to make Mongolia embody fire in all aspects: full of energy, with his soul constantly burning, high spirited, you name it!! He is a fire that shall never be extinguished.

2) Bravery + tenacity = Manlaibaatar Damdinsüren

This sir here is an actual national hero who appears in historical textbooks in Mongolian schools. He was an Inner Mongolian Pan-Mongolist military commander who fought against China. He died in the prison after being tortured by Chinese authorities for 107 days and it was reported that he refused to kneel to them, that in the end he died standing because he 'won't be lying dead in front of his enemies'. That is how I view Mongolia -- that even if he had to die, he will die with pride!!

3) Also bravery + determination = dr. Boldsaikhan Bundan

A few years ago, I watched a documentary in NHK-World Japan that deeply impressed me. It was about a cardiac surgeon in UB who, together with his team, made long trips to Mongolian countrysides to find young children with heart defects so they could be operated on for free in UB. Mongolia is a vast country with only a few people so it's often hard for people in the countryside to get proper medical checkup that he and his team found it important to come fetch the patients themselves. In all actuality, not all these heart defects are instantly life threatening but if left untreated they could progress into a whole set of conditions that leave those children permanently disabled as adults.

The thing is the good doctor himself was battling stage 4 stomach cancer (Mongolia has the highest rate of stomach (and liver) cancer in the world). The chemo and radiation often left him ill and sometimes prevented him from making rounds to the countryside, but he was still largely present in the team as its founder and most skilled surgeon. He was clearly in a lot of pain but he refused to let it show, that he kept being in high spirit for everyone's sake. His family and people around him were all in such high spirit too, and bear the doctor's burden together bravely!!

This is the same video I watched on TV and apparently it was uploaded by the youtube channel of dr. Boldsaikhan's team, Beyond the Limits!! I was overjoyed to learn that the doctor seems to still be ok!! There is another similar video also by NHK in this channel, dunno why they're different even though covering the same topic and definitely were made using the same footages; in it is an awesome quote by the doctor: "I can't let my soul die before my body does". THAT is definitely how I see Mongolia.

4) Good naturedness + humor = Nargie from ARTGER

Actually Nargie is the most unlike Mongolia out of all the people here but he's such a good natured guy that he makes me happy whenever I watch videos with him in it. That is how Mongolia is too me too; he makes me happy and spirited all the time. Anyway go watch ARTGER videos!!

Total and Permanent Disability claims are important for people who can’t work because of serious injuries or illnesses. Most common TPD claims in Australia come from serious accidents, chronic illnesses like cancer or neurological disorders, and mental health issues that greatly affect a person’s ability to earn money. These claims provide essential support for those facing major life changes, helping them during tough times. It is important for both policyholders and insurers to understand these claims to manage disability coverage in Australia effectively.

The history of the U.S. Department of Veterans Affairs (VA) is closely intertwined with the history of veterans' care and benefits in the United States. Here is an overview of the key developments in the history of the VA:

1. Post-Revolutionary War Era:

After the American Revolution, the U.S. government recognized the need to support veterans. The Continental Congress passed pension laws to provide financial assistance to disabled veterans.

2. Civil War and Post-Civil War Era:

The federal government established national soldiers' homes and hospitals to care for disabled veterans. The National Asylum for Disabled Volunteer Soldiers, established in 1865, was an early form of government-sponsored veterans' care.

3. World War I and the Veterans Bureau:

After World War I, the Veterans' Bureau was created in 1921 to consolidate various veterans' programs. It was the first federal agency dedicated entirely to veterans' services.

4. Great Depression and World War II:

The Great Depression and World War II increased the need for veterans' services. The Veterans Administration (VA) was established as a federal cabinet-level agency in 1930 to replace the Veterans' Bureau. It integrated various veterans' programs under one administration.

5. Post-World War II Era:

The Servicemen's Readjustment Act of 1944, also known as the GI Bill of Rights, provided a range of benefits to veterans, including education, loans for homes, and unemployment benefits. This legislation had a profound impact on the American middle class and veterans' prosperity.

6. Modern Era and Department of Veterans Affairs:

In 1989, President Ronald Reagan elevated the VA to a cabinet-level department, renaming it the Department of Veterans Affairs. This change reflected the importance of veterans' issues in the federal government.

7. Recent Developments:

The VA has seen continuous evolution to meet the changing needs of veterans. It has expanded services for female veterans, enhanced mental health care, and developed programs to address issues like post-traumatic stress disorder (PTSD) and traumatic brain injuries.

8. Challenges and Reforms:

The VA has faced challenges, including long wait times for medical appointments and issues with the disability claims process. Various administrations and Congress have worked on reforms to improve efficiency, accessibility, and quality of care for veterans.

Throughout its history, the VA has been dedicated to honoring the nation's commitment to its veterans, providing them with the care, benefits, and support they need and deserve after their military service.

TPD: The Ultimate Guide to Total and Permanent Disability Insurance

When life takes unexpected turns, being financially prepared can be a lifesaver. Total and Permanent Disability insurance (TPD) provides a safety net in case of a severe injury or illness that leaves you unable to work. In this guide, we'll delve into the world of TPD insurance, exploring its features, benefits, claim process, and much more.

Understanding TPD Insurance

At its core, TPD insurance offers financial protection in the event of a disability that prevents you from earning an income. It ensures that you have a source of income to cover living expenses, medical bills, and other financial obligations. TPD insurance is typically available as a standalone policy or an add-on to life insurance.

The Types of TPD Cover

There are two main types of TPD cover: Own Occupation and Any Occupation. The Own Occupation cover provides a benefit if you're unable to work in your specific profession. On the other hand, the Any Occupation cover pays out if you're unable to engage in any form of gainful employment for which you're reasonably qualified.

Benefits of TPD Insurance

Financial Security: TPD insurance provides peace of mind, knowing that you won't be left financially stranded in the face of a disability.

Flexibility: The payout from TPD insurance can be used to cover medical expenses, mortgage payments, education costs, and more.

Debt Repayment: TPD cover can help you manage debts and loans while you're unable to work.

Reduced Stress: With financial worries alleviated, you can focus on recovery and rehabilitation.

Eligibility and Premiums

To be eligible for TPD insurance, you generally need to be within a specific age range and meet certain health criteria. Premiums vary based on factors like age, occupation, and chosen coverage amount. It's essential to understand these factors when considering TPD insurance.

Making a TPD Claim

Medical Documentation: You'll need to provide medical evidence that supports your disability claim.

Claim Forms: Fill out the necessary claim forms accurately and comprehensively.

Assessment Process: The insurance company will assess your claim, considering medical reports and other relevant information.

Waiting Period: There's usually a waiting period after the claim is approved before you receive the payout.

TPD vs. Workers' Compensation

While TPD insurance and workers' compensation both provide financial support for disabilities, they differ in scope. Workers' compensation typically covers disabilities sustained at work, while TPD insurance covers disabilities regardless of where they occur.

Is TPD Insurance Worth It?

The value of TPD insurance depends on your individual circumstances. If you have dependents, debts, or significant financial commitments, TPD insurance can offer invaluable security.

TPD Insurance: A Personal Connection

My own journey with TPD insurance began when a close friend faced a life-altering accident. Witnessing the financial strain it placed on their family, I understood the significance of TPD insurance in safeguarding against the unforeseen.

Conclusion

Total and Permanent Disability insurance is a crucial safety net that ensures your financial well-being even in the face of unexpected disabilities. By providing a reliable source of income, TPD insurance offers peace of mind, allowing you to focus on recovery and rebuilding. Assess your needs, explore policy options, and secure your future with TPD insurance.

FAQs About TPD Insurance

1. What is the waiting period for a TPD insurance claim? The waiting period varies by insurer but is typically around 90 days after the claim is approved.

2. Can I have TPD insurance alongside workers' compensation? Yes, you can have both TPD insurance and workers' compensation coverage simultaneously.

3. Are mental health conditions covered by TPD insurance? Yes, many TPD policies cover disabilities arising from mental health conditions.

4. How often should I review my TPD insurance policy? It's recommended to review your policy annually or whenever significant life changes occur.

5. Can I increase my TPD coverage after purchasing the policy? In most cases, you can increase your coverage amount, but it may require additional underwriting.

Disability Camp for Disability UDID Card, Pension and other Benefits by Act Humane

The phrase "Act Humane" encapsulates both our mission and how we go about achieving it; we want to protect the environment while also ensuring that everyone has access to health, education, and employment. We try to improve the quality of life through government-initiated schemes and benefits by organizing awareness campaigns and assisting them in putting it into action through camps conducted for those highly vulnerable people. We provide education, extra food, and medical assistance to the most disadvantaged society.

A charitable organization called Act Humane works tirelessly to help people with disabilities by offering them disability certificates, free medical care, hygiene supplies, food, and education.

       Types of Disabilities

According to the Person with Disability (Equal Opportunities, Protection of Rights and Full Participation) Act, 1955, a person must be at least 40 years old and disabled to be classified as having a disability. Severely disabled people have more than one form of impairment or are at least 80% functionally impaired. The main categories of disability into which disorders are divided are as follows: 

       Congenital Disabilities

Birth defects or congenital anomalies, which are frequently referred to as congenital impairments, are functional disorders that start as soon as a baby is born. Even while some congenital anomalies are identified during pregnancy, in many instances, infants are diagnosed with them much later in life. While some of these abnormalities are caused by socioeconomic or demographic variables, many of them are caused by genetic causes.

These are frequently brought on by the environmental elements that the mother was exposed to while she was pregnant. Since insurance is a product that protects people from unknowable dangers and uncertainties, many health insurance companies do not offer coverage for persons with congenital abnormalities.

However, a judgment by the Delhi Court on February 26, 2018, emphasizes that insurance companies cannot refuse health insurance just because a person has a congenital illness. Prior to 2016, all congenital abnormalities that are outward and obvious on the major body parts are omitted. Genetic conditions that have existed since birth but are incurable are not included. Each person with a disability filling out an insurance policy form must expressly state the type of disease they are suffering from. By doing this, the insurance provider can determine whether the condition is curable, recurrent, etc., and accordingly, determine the premium and waiting period.

         Accidental Disabilities

Accidental disabilities are those that develop as a result of an incident. According to the words used in insurance, an accident may cause total, partial, or temporary disability; health insurance providers in India will pay benefits for all three types. According to data, there is a serious traffic accident in India every minute and one person dies in an accident every four minutes. This emphasizes how crucial accident insurance is.

          Mental Disabilities

Mental disabilities are those that have a permanent negative impact on a person's mood, thinking, and mental equilibrium. In India, 197.3 million people as of 2017 suffer from a mental illness. Before the mental healthcare Act was passed in 2017, mental hardcore was not covered by health insurance. Section 21(4) of the legislation states that "every insurer shall make provision for medical insurance for treatment of mental illness on the same basis as is available for the treatment of physical illness."

 Some insurance companies have begun to offer coverage for mental illness; however, because it can be challenging to determine the severity of a mental problem, providing adequate coverage is challenging, thus pricing is to offer a separate product.

Due to these factors, insurance companies typically do not provide a dedicated mental illness plan, although some of their top health insurance programs do include mental illness. When an OPD benefit is included in the plan, most of this health insurance covers both inpatient and outpatient hospitalization, therapy, and counseling. If someone requires coverage for mental illness, they should determine if they need hospitalization or only therapy and counseling and choose a plan appropriately. Insurance providers opted to offer an appropriate waiting period to cover it if any individual has a pre-existing mental disorder. The insurance provider may choose to decline coverage if the risk of morbidity and the severity of the disorder are both high.

Inxs of poison from iron maiden scorpion mamma and aries papa

Although gainfully unemployed

(fate now finds me receiving

social security disability –

for approximately

the last baker's dozen years - the yeast divine intercession

rose to the occasion), I can still vividly visualize

utter despair during early and emerging adulthood. The following synopsis wrought, impressed, crafted... within mine temple mount when yours truly long overstayed his welcome and wore out welcome mat at 324 Level Road (formerly Rural Delivery 2 - before expanse of hundred acre wood constituting Glen Elm tract became vinyl city), and lacked courage - analogous to cowardly lion epitomized in The Wizard of Oz to test mettle and live independently – abandoned said challenge rather remained domiciled with birth parents.

Indelible, permanent and unfading abysmal

damaging domestic dynamics

got indelibly etched in deep purple upon the memory banks of this erstwhile individual.

The general gist in the form of quick broad brush strokes of psychologically traumatizing recollection now follows.

I can attest to malevolent mean-spirited objections by my then father stayin' alive (Normandy Farms retirement community in Blue Bell, Pennsylvania) at date of forthwith original poetical draft

(still mourning of his wife,

i.e. mine late mother), whose passing did nothing to ameliorate severe emotional trauma in regard to mine

unkempt appearance grossly unacceptable attire,

deportment, grossly jaded mien

and erratic work ethic to figuratively rattle

(and hum) abridged list.

Back in those inglorious bourne days, I poorly wore the mantle and staff of supposed maturity.

Lack of compliance and obeisance with regulations and rules of the Harris household brewed, festered and lied dormant during prepubescence.

The pressure and tension between maternal and paternal adult would rank as dysfunctional way before such psycho babble (barely audible above the babel between me mother and father) became je nais se quois in vogue.

Such venomous barrage and fusillade spewed forth from off parental tongues at an exponential rate and on a par to feeling the stinging cudgel of a horsewhip.

Out of fear and timidity,

I consequently and silently

absorbed cruel treatment.

Neither the eldest nor youngest sibling

bore witness against the

tender spirit of their only brother.

A façade as of statue conveniently adopted.

This embodiment ill served

to fend off onslaught of incessant anger.

Such a defense mechanism

offered miniscule protection

as I mentally (dumbly and mutely) dodged andforded

lobbed and rammed insults

and affected defiance

of endless threats

and hollow ultimatums.

No matter these bitter pills

of blaring character assassination,

denunciation, fulmination, incrimination,

and countless vociferous vocalizations,

I feigned to be stone

(temple pilot) deaf. Such self-repression

of emotional maelstroms

only caused seething internal ire

to invite intense anxiety

and unpredictable

debilitating panic attacks,

They (mom and dad,

neither parent still alive)

became further angered

and inflamed per my total oblivious stance.

This reaction added insult to injury. Deliverance per tough love lessons

amplified to the tune

of additional feats

at becoming excoriated, ranted

and raved against personal habits

and what appeared as mine

nonchalant indifference to pursue work.

Those involuntary, unrehearsed

and vicious family chats happened

to be replete with heavily exploding

verbal wrath and uncorked anger.

Dad, the nominal spokesperson

for unpleasant chest donned thumping trumpeting exclamations emphatically swore

all manner of vulgarity and demanded

from this insolent appearing

male offspring, whose passive demeanor

intimated immediate compliance.

Defiance and fatigue offered him

that predictable and usual blank stare

upon hearing the kind

and lenient sentence

to pack bags and GET OUT!

With the dreaded approach

of dire and sealed fate,

I anxiously experienced

a dramatic increase in apocalyptic suspense.

Deadlines came and went without incident.

What caused especial ire and wrath

to fester pertaining

to apparent ambivalence,

indifference and nonchalance

for me to take any job -

even shoveling horse manure!

My maternal grandfather

supposedly never paid much heed

to regular and steady employment

despite his skill as a tailor.

Hence my mother and three siblings

lived in destitution and poverty.

Behavior of yours truly triggered

her flashbacks scores of years earlier,

when she lived in squalor,

and felt forced to seek either

part or full time income,

where household members

lacked camaraderie and integration

as a healthy family unit.

The wraith of those

ghastly imprecations

still hound with infrequent

unwanted ghostly visitations

from thy dead mother. Anxiety and once

immobilizing panic attacks

the battle scars afflict

my psyche and interfere

with the ability to enjoy life, liberty and pursuit of happiness

to the utmost despite reliance

on following prescription medications:

BUSPIRONE TAB 20 MG

CLOMIPRAMINE CAP 50 MG

CLONAZEPAM TAB 0.5 MG

FLUOXETINE CAP 20 MG

GLYCOPYRROLATE TAB 2 MG

Explanation of disability insurance

Disability insurance is a type of insurance that provides financial support to individuals who are unable to work due to a disability. This type of insurance typically replaces a portion of an individual's income while they are unable to work and can help cover expenses such as medical bills, housing costs, and basic living expenses. It is designed to protect individuals and their families from the financial consequences of a disability, which can be severe and long-lasting. Disability insurance can be purchased by individuals or provided by employers as a benefit.

Importance of having disability insurance

Peace of mind: Knowing that you have disability insurance can provide peace of mind, knowing that you will have financial support in the event of a disability. Protection against pre-existing conditions: Disability insurance policies often do not exclude pre-existing conditions, which means that individuals with pre-existing conditions can still receive benefits if they become disabled. Coverage for long-term disabilities: Disability insurance policies often provide coverage for long-term disabilities, which can be a significant financial burden for individuals without insurance. Coverage for mental health conditions: Many disability insurance policies also cover mental health conditions, which can be just as debilitating as physical conditions. Overall, having disability insurance can provide a safety net for individuals and families in the event of a disability, helping to protect against financial loss and allowing them to maintain independence and peace of mind.

To qualify for disability insurance, an individual must meet certain criteria, such as being unable to perform the duties of their occupation due to a physical or mental impairment. The individual must also have been employed for a certain amount of time and have a regular income. The process for applying for disability insurance typically involves completing an application and providing medical documentation to prove the individual's disability. Once approved, the individual will receive regular payments from the insurance company to help cover living expenses.

Short-term disability insurance typically provides coverage for a shorter period of time, such as a few months, while long-term disability insurance provides coverage for a longer period of time, such as several years. Overall, disability insurance provides financial support to individuals who are unable to work due to a disability and helps cover living expenses while they are unable to work.

How to Choose the Right Disability Insurance Policy

Determine your needs: Before choosing a disability insurance policy, it’s important to assess your financial needs and the potential impact that a disability could have on your income. Consider your current income, savings, and other sources of income you may have. Consider the length of the benefit period: Disability insurance policies typically offer benefit periods of two, five, or ten years, or for the duration of the disability. Choose a benefit period that aligns with your financial needs and the likelihood of your recovery. Look at the definition of disability: Different policies have different definitions of disability. Some policies will only pay benefits if you are completely unable to work, while others may pay benefits if you are only able to work in a limited capacity. Consider the waiting period: The waiting period is the amount of time you must wait before receiving benefits. Choose a policy with a waiting period that you can afford and that aligns with your financial needs. Compare costs: Compare the costs of different policies and consider the cost of the policy in relation to your financial needs. Review policy exclusions: Review the policy exclusions to ensure that the policy will cover the types of disability that you are most likely to experience. Consult with an insurance agent: Consult with an insurance agent to ensure that you understand the policy and that it meets your needs. They can also help you compare different policies and answer any questions you may have.
