While severe anxiety can come with physical symptoms, the real hurt is in your ability to confront your day. You may find it impossible to perform daily tasks—caring for your family, managing your health, or even holding down a job.
When you can’t work, anxiety has derailed your life.
Social Security Disability benefits can be a safety valve to relieve some pressure, help with your living expenses, and improve your outlook.
Getting those disability benefits, however, is not easy. You have to prove your condition keeps you from earning a steady income. And that becomes more difficult because anxiety, like so many mental illnesses, hides in plain sight.
This is when you could really use a helping hand. The disability lawyers at Horenstein, Nicholson & Blumenthal are here to guide you to the disability benefits that can improve your life.

Social Security looks for limitations in categories including:

If you suffer from an anxiety disorder, proving that you qualify for disability benefits can be a unique challenge, because it isn’t always a condition that other people can easily spot or even understand.
It rarely shows up on visual medical exams, such as CT scans, MRIs or ultrasounds.
