      As someone who broke in half a year ago and can barely function, it’s an uphill battle at best. Here’s a sample from my first denial:

      You have difficulty performing certain tasks. However, you should be able to take care of your personal need, understand and follow simple instructions, and perform simple jobs.

      I have a 128 IQ. But to the US system, I’m just a simpleton that’s fit to follow simple instructions and perform simple jobs. That’s it. That’s the benchmark. And it’s not going to get better any time soon.

      I wish you the best.
