I worked at the same company for the past 6 years and during that time i took fmla/short term disability for probably about 2.5 years added up.
Despite that ive been promoted multiple times and got my associates degree.
But now, during my worst episode ever my drs and i decided to apply for disability.
So now my job is to focus on me and my health.

The stress from my job was awful for even the healthiest person. It was sales with high quotas and 60+ hours a week plus out of state travel. And i have a family that was seriously neglected because all of my time home i would spend in bed depressed.

Maybe in the future ill work again. Im still so young, in my mid 20s so im hoping a few years of actually taking my meds and im doing dbt intensive outpatient so ill be able to work again down the road. A long ways down the road tho.
