I know what you mean about the stigma because I' disabled too and can't work because of head injuries, depression and alot of other stuff. I'm on many many meds. I would love a part time job, I have worked several years ago while in college, and I loved to work as i love being near people too. I haven't tried to gt a new job since i'm on disability, and would lose it if i got a substantial paying job. I've been volunteering at the elderly care unit at the closest hospital, and I did some volunteer work at the cancer hospital years ago. I sold Avon and May Kay too. If anything now, i would have to do a home business as I get seizures too and am afraid to go out as I fear I'll have a seizure. I can understand the employers point of view in my case as no one else would like to see seizure either.Well I hope this helps and I hope you can find part time job. Good Luck!!!
