I just say I am on disability now. I say it is for side effects of chemo although that is not originally why I went on disability, but I don't see that as anyone's business. It took some time before I got over my shame about that, but I have found it less stigmatizing to say I'm on disability than to say I have a mental illness or to say that I was treated for lung cancer.
