Broncos38 Posted March 30, 2014 Share Posted March 30, 2014 Well I just went to my doctor and found out that I really don't need to be on my medication for 3 years. And my parents were controlling my ssdi. My dad put my money in Colorado. I live in Wisconsin. So, now in the past he was my payee. And switched over society assets he got angry at me cause of this. When I went to SS office the guy I really don't need a payee anymore. I went a bad time in my life and my family overreacted thought I was depressed and forced me in the hospital for two get drugged up for nothing. This whole thing is messed up. My parents just didn't see how it affected me by the time of my greiving process. Link to post Share on other sites
preraph Posted April 1, 2014 Share Posted April 1, 2014 You say the doctor told you you can stop meds, so that's fine, but just make sure you are not misunderstanding something. Make sure it's the same doctor who put you on them to begin with because another won't have all the needed info. Don't be mad at your parents for getting you help with depression. Since you did get meds for it and got through it, you have no idea how it would have gone without them. Believe me as one who didn't get any help with it, it can really spiral down and waste years of your life. If you are sure the prescribing doctor approves and is monitoring you -- very important to see him for follow up periodically -- then great, you're off meds and ready to take back your finances/life. If your parents don't think you're better, find out why. Sometimes others can see things we can't. If you feel your dad is syphoning money, well, that's another thing altogether. 1 Link to post Share on other sites
Quiet Storm Posted April 2, 2014 Share Posted April 2, 2014 What does he do with the money? Is he saving it for you or paying your bills with it? Dont blame your parents. When a mall or school shooting happens... everyone is saying "Why didn't his parents get him help?" There is no way for them to know if it was just a phase or a temporary bad time. My mom controls my sister SS. It was not an easy process, involving doctors, medical records and hearings. It must've been pretty serious. I think it's great that you are doing better. Find out what you need to do to regain and keep control of your money. Forgive your parents (but not if they're taking your money). Link to post Share on other sites
