My experience with some of such papers is that you are supposed to have professional help already that does it for you.

Shows that you need assistance.

I have had some that required a shit ton of paperwork from different sources to be returned within a 30 day window.

Its impossible to pull off, but a social worker who knows these pages makes 1 phone call and now you have 90 days. Makes another phone call if its still not done.

    Cool!

    We all know all mentally disordered people have strong support networks, the ability to schedule things, manage stress, move around a town or city, etc etc.

    Not everybody has a partner, a friend, family to fall back on, lots of people are mentally disordered and in crisis because they got fucked over by those people.

    The system is broken, and its on purpose.

    I used to work for a nonprofit, we helped these people best we could, but the way the government makes you do things is a laughable joke, its broken.

    But hey, that was at least back when any of this shit still had any funding and was still kind of working.

    Now?

    Now?!

    Yeah, my guess would be if you started say an SSDI application today, handed it in finished perfectly... 1 to 2 years before you get your first pass/fail result back.
