Denied Again

* Forgive me if I didn’t use the right flair *

I had my hearing on 7/7 and got my denial on 7/29. I have Migraines, PTSD, Hallucinations, Bipolar Disorder, Anxiety etc.

I’ve been trying since August 2021 for SSI and I keep getting denied. I talked to my lawyer today and a former appellate judge who works in his office says it’s not “strong” enough to go to the appeals counsel.

He says I need to just start over on a new application.

I’m just so tired and drained. This month makes 5 years. I’ve cried so much since being denied it’s sent me into such a depressive state all I feel like doing is sleeping. I lost my job in March due to my boss/dad having a stroke and due to my conditions I know I wouldn’t be able to go work a job because I’ve tried in the past and it didn’t work out…I worked at one job 4 days and another one 1 day.

I just need some advice and someone to tell me to keep fighting for it because right now I just feel so defeated.

This will be my 3rd application and second hearing with an unfavorable decision.

Thank you for reading 💓

Fast ALJ Decision?

Hi all! This is my first time posting for advice, I'm applying for SSI. I'm applying mainly for chronic migraines, PTSD and anxiety all which is heavily documented. I had my hearing on 7/7 and I called the hearing office on Monday and was told my judge made a decision on Sunday (7/19).
I was curious if anyone else had a fast decision and was approved or denied

*I do realize every situation is different this going on so long is about to drive me crazy*

TIA:)
