Jonathan responds: Janette, your question illustrates the difference between what appears to be a signficant mental health problem and a vocationally significant mental health problem.
The two questions I would have for you – (1) does your self-harming activity and anxiety impact your capacity for work and (2) do you have a treating psychologist or psychiatrist who would support you in saying that these mental health issues prevent you from being a reliable worker in a job?
My guess is that your mental health problems may very well interfere with your ability to maintain attention and concentration but to win a SSDI or SSI case you need support from a treating doctor or psychologist.
