I have PTSD,Depression and physical limitations. I was making $32 an hour but spent most of the day regrouping and fixing things I messed up due to flash backs and lack of concentration. I saw everybody walking down the street or just driving by as a threat and some times even yelled at people that had nothing to do with what I was doing. I am truly scared that I wil end up in jail or the hospital for losing it and becoming violent.
Even scarier is going to pdoc or any pdoc and not being a basket case at the time, and being labeled a faker. If forced to return to work(if I can get a job) especially during these lean times. It is inevitable I will at some point lose it all together and hurt someone and myself. I 48 and damaged goods nobody's going to hire a liability like me. I can only see 2 alternatives crime or suicide and I won't make it in jail so that would be a death penalty. It's a plus your doctor told you too apply because he does understand. Don't be ashamed your very young and have a lot of time to get help. I waited 48 miserable years to get help and I barley holding on.
Get the help and take the financial assitance till you get better, a lot of patients have ended up becoming therapists.
Good Luck.....
