Ellis Wed, 21 Apr 2010 10:54:19 +0000 http://www.socialsecurityinsider.com/?p=2045#comment-1703 I was diagnosed with Bipolar Disorder and have had it since before I was 18 yrs of age. I've never been able to hold gainful employment because of this and have been on disability for the past 5 yrs. My father just recently started recieving SSI after having multiple heart attacks and has been declared totally and permanently disabled. Under law, am I entitled to something known as survivors benefits? I ask this because I just got a letter in the mail saying that the SSA has been trying to contact me about my case.
