I am beyond capable right now of working . My last shift was so rough and it was only two hours. I keep giving away my shifts, calling off, I just had to take a medical leave and now a week later I’m calling off again. I am begging my partner to go get a job. I am exhausted and disabled and now potentially pregnant and/or in an episode. I am having seizures and movement and neurological problems. I am depressed and suicidal. My mood is going insane. I wanna fly off the handle for no reason. I want to be alone

What meds do you currently take?
Maybe you need a med adjustment.

Immediately apply for social security, save what you have as best you can, may involve cancelling subscriptions/ insurance. Also visit physician.

I am on social security already. I’ve had to work part time because before a few months ago I lived alone and didnt make enough social security to survive. My partner hasn’t found a job still. It’s exhausting me.

I don’t know about your individual case, but I used to struggle with suicidal thoughts.
This got sorted when I went on Wellbutrin.

So you are both on social security? Why do you feel you need to work right now if you can survive without it? take it easier but stay busy until you feel better
No it’s only me on social security. He has no income. I am working to support me, my animals, and now my partner. This wasn’t part kf the original deal and I’m tired of it stressing me out and I’m tired of communicating and nothing changing.

Is he unable to apply for social security. You don’t have to answer, just want to suggest obvious ways to help the situation. In your condition I would not feel responsible to support anyone. Dont really know the entire situation, but not going to advise against having the partner, but instead encourage him to support in any way he can. Use the team you have right now, even though you don’t seem to be working well together presently.

I’m pushing him to get a job. There isn’t any solution beyond that or kicking him out but I don’t want that. He is a good partner. But yeah I don’t feel like he’s done much in the way of getting a job, considering how difficult it is right now, you have to work a lot to get a job. I don’t know if he understands it’s not like it was even five years ago.
I can identify with the situation your parter’s in, I’ve always had sz work ethic and have had periods of long unemployment. There was a point I could have moved in with a woman, but actually didn’t because I realized it was going to turn into a situation like yours. I had no money and was a little psychotic and working shitty jobs off and on.

I’m thinking I’m just gonna quit and let my car get repossessed. I can’t drive it anyway. I don’t care. Who cares.
I’m sorry @Moon . I wish there was something I could do.
