Thank you for your question and welcome to Health Central's ADHD Community.

 

It would be impossible for me to say whether your daughter would qualify for SSDI benefits. This is based on each individual and their level of disability. It can be a long process and you would need to supply all of the medical records for your daughter to the Social Security Administration for review.

I hope this helps.
