Yeah, it sucks all right. I'm in the same boat---need an income, but have been basically too unstable to work. I'm looking outside of nursing because I know I can't do that again. Not sure what I'm suited to do anymore, but I keep trying because I'm just not ready to give up yet. In the meantime, I do have a lawyer and I'm filing for SSDI, I know it takes forever to get a hearing and I can always cancel the application if I find something I can actually do. Who knows?
