SSDI Re-Determination?

Question by James B: SSDI Re-determination?
Hi there I have just been sent a letter for my SSDI to be reviewed, I am presently receiving benefits from social security. I am in the state of NJ. My initial disability was determined to be psychological. Depression, bipolar and blindness, I think I don’t even recall. Since then my need for disabilities have grown. I know have pulmonary hypertension with right heart failure as well. Unfortunately i went to jail for a few years ago (May 2009-Nov 2011) & was released Nov of 2011 and during tmy incarceration i had no psychological treatment what so ever and therefore no documentation either to support my mental woes. The NJ state of disability determination services dept has sent me a letter (SSA-3380-BK). I am of course concerned about my lack of mental health treatment recently and the reflection this may have on determining the result of this process. Will my compounded ailments make me more likely to win this process? Will SSA admin understand that the lack of mental health documentation due to my incarceration? Incidentally I called the adjudicator after receiving the letter and this woman stated that the disabilities listed on her records were Depression, Drug alcohol abuse,Blindness,Insomnia, Pulmonary Hypertension and Heart Failure. The only category no well documented is the depression.
Thank you for your time
