most of the alcoholics/addicts I know (plenty) are dual diagnosed. they've been self-medicating for years and get hooked. loads of bipolars, schizoid personalities...it's a real mess. my neighbor, in his late fifties, has had a lifelong seizure disorder- he's wrecked two cars driving to work. He applied for SSDI three years ago. They are having to lawyer up to fight the denials he keeps getting. he worked until he just couldn't work anymore. He's got other health problems -COPD (no, he doesn't smoke) and diabetes and his IQ is somewhere around 80.

He's been denied SSDI even though he managed to work as long as he did.

Adak must be a youngster. They never think anything bad is going to happen to them. What college are you at, Adak? And my apologies if you've already mentioned it and Imissed it
