I've been on disability for 20 years. Had to leave a job I enjoyed. I have not worked in 20 years and understand the feeling. I found volunteer positions and have taken many classes. It is frustrating to not work at this age but now my goal is to find things that keep me occupied - think of this as a challenge.

I do love dogs! I have a puppy of my own that i am always playing and looking after with. I dont kniw what i do without my boy. Hes the only boy that helps me gets through my crappy life right now…

Don't be so depressed. I know how you feel. I had to give up work that I loved also. You will need to find a hobby and pets to focus on. Sometimes that depressed feeling of being without a career comes back but with pets to focus on and painting I have found ways to move past and stay busy. Don't forget the Bible, it was suggested to me on here, to read Psalms 90 after seizures. It helps, it lifts my hope and feelings after a seizure.

Ive been at my worse when i am at work, they have seen it all! Ive been sick, trying to control my seizures, cannot walk in a striaght line, exhausted, headaches, anxious, depressed, upset. The whole thing! I cannot do this life anymore… i hate it

Oh, that is like what I do also, other than I'm more nervous. My migraines finally stopped after I couldn't work. It's crazy how people can have such a simular problem but yet there is no full fix.
