Because of my personality disorders and Generalized Anxiety Disorder and Depression, I feel I can no longer work. What do I do? I am single and live in a house that I am paying for. Canadian residents (particularly Ontario)please tell me how difficult it is to obtain permanent disability or whatever route I can take. I just came from a long leave and know, that at age 46, I can no longer work.

Hi there.... Sorry to hear you are having such a rough time of it! I am not an "expert" in this area by any means but here in the States, I know it isn't at all uncommon to be denied the first time one applies for disability. I also know that we have lawyers that specialize in Social Security Disability Law and they are often successful in difficult cases.
