Bipolar denied disability, 6 years ago

Hi,

I can find no answers for my issues.
in 2009 diagnosed bipolar/PTSD/Lumbar disc disease/Osteoarthritis by Doctors and 2 Psychiatrist. Applied for SSDI in 2011 at the encouragement of ex husband and doctor. SSA denied me based on "condition will improve". In 2012 was in middle divorce and never saw denial letter and did not know I could appeal.
Moved to Fl 2012 after divorce and ran amuck. No insurance, no heath care as Florida never accepted Obama care. I lost all healthcare and access to my medications, and have been cycling in and out for last six years.Started a failed business, picked up homeless guy *mod edit*. Gave away to various people 71k of my divorce settlement, went to England to meet 4th husband sight unseen. Escaped back to USA after he tried to lock me in and rape me.
I was baker acted (Florida Term) for suicide ideation. I spent 5 days in psyche ward, where two more doctors confirmed 2012 diagnosis. Now being seen at free clinic even tho I meet all requirements for SSI and SDI. Free clinic does not prescribe anxiety meds (narcotics).

I quit my back of the house *mod edit* job after numerous confrontations with managers.
Plus had a heatstroke in June.
My snap (food stamps) case worker had me Baker acted, cops came to the house after I threatened to walk in the ocean if she was going to cancel my minimal food stamps after quitting job. She also told me to go apply for SSI. When I went to apply the only option on SSA was appeal from 2012, so I did.
Now since June this is all I can see.
"Your Benefit Applications
We’re sorry, we cannot provide your Benefit Application Status at this time. We apologize for the inconvenience. Please try again later."
I have no money, no transportation. The place I am staying(my Aunts) is going to be sold and I have no place to go with in 6 months.
I have been in reconsideration stage since being discharged from hospital. My local office won't take my calls. They shuffle me to main line where I get no answers. I have sent in to local office all my medical files from 2012 and most recent. Hospital doctors, free clinic psychs all say I am bipolar 2.
Anything else I can do to hurry up this process?

Find a lawyer that will apply on your behalf that only takes a small percentage of the lump sum you get. You're much more likely to get approved but sadly they take a good chunk of the back pay you get depending on when you're considered disabled. I think SSDI depends on how much you've worked recently. SSI is easier to get. You'll have to meet with one of their psychiatrists and explain all you've gone through. You'll have to also make your case to the lawyer and they can tell you how likely it is you'll get it. You have to articulate many reasons why you can't work which sounds legitimate in your case. They really just want to weed out people that are trying to get a free ride. Mental illness is harder to prove you're really disabled than say blindness or something.

Once you're approved, you can use an Able account to invest money above the $2,000 asset limit for Medicaid/Food Stamps. It can only be used for living expenses like housing/car. You can use any state plan: Ohio's is really good. Then you might want to look at Section 8 housing if you want to be able to afford housing.
