I had to quit working 10 years ago, and after about 6 months of unsuccessful

attempts at making money at home, I applied for SSD. It's a long, arduos

process, but I was fortunate to get approved on my first try. They listed

the FM, morbid obesity, anxiety, depression, and degenerative disc disease

to get it passed.

Describing FM is so difficult because it's a bit different for each of

us. I would stress your level of pain, how it is so unpredicatable, how the

stress of working makes all your symptoms worse. Get proof from your

doctors stating your symptoms and how it makes working more difficult. I

wish you luck with it.
