Hi NF,

Sorry you're panicking. That is not fun. I am an admin asst/data entry type all around computer person. I've worked all kinds of odd jobs since age of 18 (even earlier, but not worth mentioning). I rarely can last more than 3 months full time (did 4 months once) and more than a year part time (did that 2x). My current job of 2 years has been the longest. Other than the farm and a couple of retail jobs, I've done computer work and I like it.

Whenever I have to quit or lose a job I feel terrible, but often it's because I'm moving to a new state (related to my illness...I love to leave things behind, recklessly travel, etc.)

So I relate, and I've gone a few years since 18 without a job at all, like 19-20, 22-23, parts of '04 and '05. It sucks to feel beholden to others whether it's the gov or your partner.

I was out all day, so sorry I didn't see your notes until now. I did get to see my p-doc on an emergency appt though. I have new meds. Feel a little relieved. Still haven't been sleeping well. Argh. Too much energy, but my body is wanting to rebel and crash, despite my humming brain.

TTY tomorrow.

You be safe, okay?
