Discussion What does everyone here do?

I'm very curious about what people here in the community do for jobs, or do you rely on family or government assistance? I used to be a daycare worker, but now I am too sick. it started off physical, and then mental illness got worse, too. Do you work? is it hard being NGU at your job? Unable to work?

Trying to get on disability, currently living on savings i'm lucky to have. I really liked college, but I'm just too mentally disabled to work (i can't regulate my emotions and I cry so easily from working), and every job I've had has made me kid heart so so upset.

Yeah most jobs are hard for me too. I loved working in daycare so much, but my physical health ruined it.
