It's been four years since I left job as insurance transcriber due to mental and physical health failure. Tried two more jobs. One, they let me go because was not remembering handbook teaching (not given time for on-job learning). Second, let go for tremors in my hands (prob' so many meds too many yrs).
That was when I filed for SSD. I receive $837. I could get by if absolutely nothing changed ... well things do of course. I am $40 over poverty level so not entitled to state benefits.
Due to changes, I've advanced half my check prior to its arrival, for too many months now. I must find the courage to supplement my income.
I cannot overwork at keyboard as have three disc extrusions. Cannot lift over 35 lbs. Cannot work 8 hrs due to easy fatigue.
Tonight someone showed me love (giving w/o expectation). It has inspired me more than anything I can recall in years. Even in inspiration, deathly afraid of rejection.
Job needs be flexible, PT, accepting of my behavioral health problem????? Any ideas anyone? cf
