Some people CAN'T understand except through direct experience with something. This guy doesn't know you, he doesn't know what you go through. Another thing to consider is that for some people work KEEPS them up, and some people might assume (due to ignorance) that if you don't have a job you become homeless, kind of disappear. Because to people who haven't had to face that they DON'T see it. They look right past the people on the streets, and they dont have to talk to people on disability!

I'm glad you realize that this person was ignorant, in one way or the other. He just can't understand.

I'm sorry this happens.

I think stefano is right. You are going through a lot. I was REALLY impressed when I heard you were going to therapy 2x a week (sometimes it's hard for me to even get the one scheduled) as well as discussion groups. It takes a lot of nerve and energy to go to these things. good for you =)

hang in there berries, I wish humans were more considerate and understanding *hugs*
