Hi, this is my first post

I was diagnosed with bipolar 4 years ago. I was in and out of in patient and out patient programs in addition to on going therapy and regular visits with pdocs.

I have worked for the same company for 6 years, but during that time I've missed about 2.5 years combined for medical leave having to due with my mental state.

I've been out of work now for over a month again due to depression this time.

So my question is, for those on SSDI, did the decision to make that change make you happier?
I can afford the pay cut without a huge change to my life or my family. So if it doesn't come down to money, will this be a good choice?

I've tried so hard (and failed) at working, getting promoted and succeeding at my company over the past 6 years that I'm wondering, is the stress from my job even worth it?

Please share your experiences
