I kind of had the same situation back in August. I even went out on a few interviews but no one was interested. I got discouraged, gave up and signed up for disability. I was awarded it on the first try.

I don't understand why some people get denied and others get the first try, but I know I was at my wits end. I didn't really want to "retire", but the stress from working was keeping me in a bad place so I went for disability, however, I don't consider it to be a great answer since I can't really pay all my bills with the amount I get, so I'm going to have to learn to live without a few of the extras.

It leaves me scared about the future and paying for medical bills. I'm quickly using up my savings, too. It's a scary world these days and keeps me anxious for most of the time.

You are not alone.
