I’m currently unable to work but I study via distance education to keep me busy. I’m sure you can find something you’ re Interested in to keep yourself busy. Could be painting, writing, studying, making music, exercising,…
I want that too but I get too depressed and psychotic when I try to work. I tried twice so now I know it isn’t possible right now. I accepted that and moved on.
I work as a temp. I think it does me good to be occupied and interact with other people. They don’t open until 11am now during corona, which suits me so I can wear off the drugs. If I had to start like 8am it wouldn’t work because then everybody would see there was something off about me and I would probably have difficulty working.
Yeah, and often half days, like 4 hours. Typically I work about 15-30 hours each month, so it’s not a lot, but I’m happy with that. I need to recharge myself mentally in between.
Yeah, I’m also on wellfare, so I just get by on what I get. I have a goal to try working 50%, and be partially on wellfare. I will never get a good economy, but at least I will get by if I’m cafeful with spending.
Yeah, I know…I’m not sure I can do it, but they want me to try to see if it can be done. Worst case scenario it doesen’t work and I end up on permanent wellfare i guess. I hope I can do it though, I want to contribute if I can.
I love having a job, but im burned out by my MI, and don’t think i ever will have a job again.
I will hold my head high, thanks, and try to instead be a good friend and family member and try not to be a burden for my surroundings, but bring joy and happiness if i can and im not ill.
