When I had to go on disability it was a massive crisis for me. My identity was tied up in my career. It was earthshattering for me to think I was gonna be disabled. THEN there was the oh so pleasant experience of living for several months with NO INCOME ( federal employees do not get state disability. I wasnt considered unemployed as I had a job until my disability retirement went thru and it took several months for that to take effect) I am terrified of the idea of attempting to return to work. One I get these upswings where I start thinking maybe just maybe I could and then BANG I'm down and I know its totally impossible. I also remember the horror of dragging myself into work and desperately trying to make it thru the day and breaking down in front of all those people over and over again. Then I remember living with no income......... no I have no interest in returning to work. If I honestly thought it was possible I would do it. But the reality is that if I were to try I would just end up in the same situation AGAIN. I know this. I dont expect others to comprehend it as they didnt and do not live it. so honey........ fuck em and what they think- its irrelevantRainehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17088907661394233572noreply@blogger.com
