If anyone is willing to share, I'd love to know more information on getting disability for bipolar disorder. How much do you receive, what is the process/how hard is it to actually get benefits?
Reason being... I'm really starting to wonder if I'm EVER going to be able to hold down a legitimate job. I've never held the same job for more than 6 months... either because I got fired, or because I changed jobs in fear of being fired soon. I just started a new job, and 3 days into being on my own, I already got a write up. (For something incredibly stupid I might add) None the less, it went into my file. So basically I only have one "left" because the 3rd write up, you get fired.
It's starting to make me super depressed and I'm just not sure I'm ever going to be able to keep a job. Idk what to do
