No, I couldnt cognitively handle completing all the paperwork and also got paranoid about downstream consequences of being in the SSDI “system” even as an applicant.

"Lifestyle creep" is just not wanting to live in absolutely hellish, squalid conditions. My rent is super expensive because my apartment has several rooms, has windows that don't face directly into the wall of another building, and isn't super loud at all hours. But I guess that's "lifestyle creep" in 2025 America.

“Lifestyle creep” is a moralistic blame-the-victim label that well off people apply to those of us who are struggling. I have a wife and 4 kids. Our lives and spending has exploded, not creeped, and while we did upgrade our living conditions a little, I still live in a house that’s still less than the one my mom had when she was my age.
