I've been told that I should be on disability, but I don't feel like I need it either, maybe because I've never been treated that way. But I think it comes down to how much you think you can handle. Just because you rely on medication doesn't mean you can't function at all. It isn't as if you have to stop taking the meds in order to work. I rely on medication pretty heavily, but that doesn't stop me from trying to do what I want with my life, even if it's hard sometimes. If you think you can handle working, then go for it. Don't let the naysayers stop you. It's your life, after all.
