[QUOTE="OTE, post: 738448"] You can"t apply for him. As others have said there's lots if evaluations. He has to admit that he has a problem. That's usually where it all falls apart. He has to admit that the job losses were his fault. There has to be documentation of the jobs and reason for termination. Is there evidence of his behavior on the job that got him fired? Even texts from coworkers or bosses would help. Look at the ss definition of disabled. It talks about permanent. That's part of why its hard for young people to qualify. Can he prove that he will never learn to be more functional? Not saying that a young mentally ill and/ or addict won't get ss disability ssi or SSDI. But its very hard. Especially if he has an avg or better IQ. [/QUOTE]
