Afterwards my file was sent to a group of workers who helped me to find a job that suited my interests and qualifications. I still work here, almost 6 months later.  Have you considered seeking the help of an agency? They can be really awesome.

Not to be rude, but I would stop suggesting this to people who don't live in Canada. The U.S's services for disabled people to get help finding jobs are rather pathetic compared to you guys up north so seeing this might make people who don't have access to such resources feel worthless. I know that's how it made me feel back when I was struggling to find employment earlier this year anyways.
With that being said, I wish I was in a position to help you Golden. It is often a struggle to find employment these days, especially if you have any type of illness. About the only thing I can suggest is maybe try some freelance work in the meantime at least? I read a post of yours earlier that said you had a background in digital marketing. Those skills can be marketed pretty well from home without working for a company if you know how.
