what's your job?

[Draconis]

I worked non-stop from 1998-2006 (VERY difficult). At that point I walked off my shitty job and ended up getting with my g/f (long story for another post). I had odd jobs after that but my anxiety and bi-polar was out of control even on meds.

I finally got back on disability (SSDI) and now get $922 a month. It's a fucking life saver. Before, I'd call in sick until I got fired, and would have panic attacks before and during work so severe that I'd have to go home and one time landed in a mental hospital.

Anyway, what's your job?

Mental health is a silent killer and people underestimate it's prowess and the fact it is indiscriminate mate.
Hell of a thing.

Cool man!

Yes indeed. I've been dealing with it since I was a teenager (40 now). Been on various brain pills at least 20 years. The combo I take now seems to really help, but still can't work. My last job was a laid back 4 hours a day, couple days a week and still couldn't make it.

Glad to be on disability now as it provides a life for my g/f and I that is otherwise not possible.

It's a hell of a thing and not taken seriously enough by far. I've done a lot of campaigns and work for mental health awareness.. here in the UK. Nothing that gained huge public interest, but enough.
I've also helped with PTSD and things..
Glad you're getting the help you need financially.

LOL!
The last sentence I can totally relate to RE spending of the money...
Phew. Anyone who's met Mrs A knows, she can spend and spend well!

I appreciate it man! That's awesome that you did that. It needs more awareness. I am not lazy, and I'm not getting a "government handout" cause I don't feel like working. I fucking hate when people assume that shit...

Fucking badass! I dabbled a bit with PC repair as well. Even worked as a tech in a big computer place. Sadly, my co-workers were two faced dicks and I was quickly "let go". lol

As for coding I used to code in C++. Good stuff! Now I'll dabble with php and all and mainly just do custom template edits.

Excellent to hear mate. It's good work but can get overwhelming very quickly as I am sure you know.
C++ is a good language C# now being the boy along with php, jQuery and Ajax etc, again I am sure you know this too

@mr&mrs sparks being a stay at home mum is perfectly normal and hard work!
As for your brother, yeah it's a hell of a thing.. Hope he's alright.

Coolness. But yeah mental health is a big deal. It's more severe than people think. Some would say I'm just lazy and am getting a "government handout". This can't be further from the truth....
