And this is part of it! I go to a group paid by insurance. Many of those people don't work but some who don't obviously can. It is possible at one point they could not. Rainy day I don't know you so this is not fully geared at you but you gave me a perfect example. you use the phrase not high functioning anymore suggesting never again rather than currently not high functioning. You don't know what the future brings. And I really don't know if you do work and just don't consider yourself high functioning Or what and it's not my business but I do feel bad for you all the same.

I don't get upset with the people that are on disability and genuinely need the assistance. I also don't care if you're not working because you can afford it. I get upset with those who go on stability because they genuinely need it and then continue on disability because they can not because they need it. And health professionals know this. So as a result many have become judgmental. I feel like I'm being judged rather than heard/helped by health professionals.
