> I would like to work part time for couple of months. Does anyone know how to find one?

Oooohhh man, I know this is tough. As both a former depressed "temp" and years ago, an employment counsellor, here are my few bits.

Start out looking for night shifts. All that hard work at night makes us exhausted in the morning, and you will feel tired, meds or no meds. This is where you can experiment with different meds because you won't have to worry about insomnia.

Try to get the fewest hours you can at first...it will help to 'gradually' expose you back to the 'world'. (From that isolation depression causes.)

Try to give yourself a good 6 months to a year at this, then maybe try to move a step 'up'...finding a better paying job...and maybe one that has a bit more contact with people. But don't do it until you feel you are "ready".

If you wish any further details or such...please feel free to babblemail me and remember many others on here have had the same experience.
Just hang around here and you will get great support.

Best,
Jay
