    I don't respond well to people who claim a cure but you have to buy the book to find out what it is.

    My Dutch lawyer also told me it was easier to get disability benefits with a psychiatric diagnosis. I was lucky to have heard some cautionary tales and I didn't want to have that diagnosis hovering over me for the rest of my life. These systems aren't equipped to handle anything than the run-of-the-mill disabilities in my experience, I also got rejected twice.
