IMHO, There is too much DISinformation in this forum.
I've been on disability for 20+ years.
I lost in court, appealed & then won.
Prior to the first court, my lawyer said that I would win, then before my 2nd court the same lawyer said that I had very little chance.
Lawyer can help, but they usually make you wait until your case has been appealed the 3rd time & you're next step is court.
You should let your lawyer build your case, (using they're own doctors) & in the mean time, give the gov. as little information as you can.
They will only twist it around against you, so be patient!

My previous job was selling pot. (legally with tax stamps)
The OKC office of the AFT had made it obvious that they didn't like me selling pot, yet refused to give me a trial. After I lost all 4 tenants, & all my friends were now too scared to visit, I applied for disability. (1988)
"I will always consider this a bribe to not sell cannabis." was written in, just above my signature. (just in case it wasn't clear in the rest of my application)

I would not advise anyone to try walking in my shoes, but you can learn from my example. If you want real help, feel free to contact me.
I'm waiting for YOU to be ready, so I can go back to selling medicine & get off of the back of the taxpayers.
