Plus at this point I don't think anyone wants to hire someone who got their degree 11 years ago and has never had a job related to it. A while ago my doctor suggested I look into vocational rehab. I've been meaning to call but keep putting it off due to anxiety (I have a severe phone phobia). Does anyone here have any experience with vocational rehab? What could I expect? Would they help me choose a different career path and send me back to school? Would they tell me there's nothing they can do for me?

Thanks!
I went through voc rehab. They were helpful, but very very slow in responding. I found a temp job on my own, then through them found the job I am working at now. I'm not sure if they help people go back to school or not,but I would think so. Good luck!
