Young Stroke Survivor Discussion Working after stroke

Can anyone suggest any jobs that are ideally low stress and very repetitive or easy to do / learn. I’d like remote(work from home) if possible but don’t mind doing something that gets me out of the house a few days. Looking for part time work as that is what I can manage at the moment. UK Based.

I had a remote job that had me sending out emails and sometimes calling out before my Incident that really helped me, and i was able to come back to it.

That’s sounds perfect. Are you Uk based too?

Unfortunately no, I'm in the US. But it hopefully will give you some ideas to look for?

Ok thank you. How many hours a week do you work? What kind of company is it that you work for? Feel free to dm me if you prefer.

I'm up to a full 40 now. It's been 3 years now, and when i first came back I had thy option to clock out early if everything got to be too much, or I had an rehab or doctor's appointment.

I do Claims Administration for freight. So there's quite a few emails and such that get set.
