Social Security Disability Lesson # 105:
Sometimes a good attitude makes a big difference.
During a recent disability hearing the Administrative Law Judge asked the claimant questions about his medical records.
There were references to malingering (faking) and being a hypochondriac.
The person answered clearly, respectfully, and in a reasonable manner.
The Judge accepted his answers and granted him Social Security Disability benefits.
It was a good lesson.
Answer honestly.
Do not get angry.
Explain as best you can what was going on at the time.
It can make the difference between a good outcome, and a disaster.
