First hearing for SSDI is coming up

3. I don't know why your attorney said you waited too long

There are millions of people with disabilities that worked for years and then looked for work for a long time before filing. Your health can get worse while you are looking for work and frankly, sometimes we think we can work when we really can't. I didn't file for disability until my family demanded that I file. They had been gently pushing me to for years take some time off and get healthy.

I will say, you should make some notes about how your disability affects everything from getting a good nights sleep, getting up in the morning and getting to work on time, etc. Yes, the judge will be looking at your ability to work, but your ADL's (activities of daily living) matter as well.
