Unable to find a job -- file for SSDI??  

 


Should I apply for SSI or SSDI for Adult ADHD & Bipolar. I am essentially unemployable because I have gotten fired from too many jobs (3 in two years) due to the fact that I have a problem with concentration, doing analysis and keep getting distracted.

This leads me to getting fired after typically just after a few months because my manager & coworkers don't have confidence in my ability to do the job. They use any mistake I made no matter how inconsequential as a way to justify getting rid of me.

I got terminated after 3 months from what was supposed to be a 10 month contract assignment because they weren't happy with my performance.

I have been told by recruiters that I am essentially unemployable. I am 30, have a BA degree, MS degree but a lousy job history and no real supervisory references. Because of the latter, I can't even get a temp job.

The reason why I ask about depression & anxiety is because I sought help from several psychiatrists & told I have some type of depression or anxiety and given some type of pysc meds. They helped somewhat but still the problems of concentration, distraction are still there.

Is this a reason to get SSI, What about bankruptcy?? I heard that in certain cases, you can get student loans discharged if there is a 'hardship reason'. Well, not being able to get any job may be a reason if I can that argument.
