Applying Social Security disability insurance?

I'm 25 years old. I have been hospitalized a lot of time from panic attacks. At least 3x. I can't go to school I tried many times and fail each time because my axiety stops me from going to school. Work is the same way. I had real good paying jobs and quit becauE of panic attacks. Very hard to focus. I had only 3 jobs my life and Together I only worked 8 months. I see a psychologist as well and the medicine works a bit but I feel druged and with that I still couldn't go to work. It gets mad to the point I had the ambulance came in and another were I actually passed out and my friend drive me to the Er. I just want to kno if I would qualify for social security for disability? Thanks

    I thought panic attacks and anxiety was a treatable condition, you would be better off overcoming it and having a more full, normal life than giving up and living on the dole in your cave.

    This indecent guiesde indicates it's possible and list some of h required symptoms.

    Panic attacks are treatable. You can overcome this issue with counseling, perhaps medication, and hard work. No need to throw in the towel on being able to work productively for the next 50 or 60 years. You are very young. Get yourself to a care provider who specializes in anxiety and panic disorders and get some treatment.

    With only 8 months total of work, no you haven't worked enough under ss to qualify for ss disability.
