I am on disability and still employed (although not working, they pay for my medication). If and when I am ready to return to work there is a job waiting for me. I am from Canada, so it may be different from where you are, but here I get a monthly amount, and when I return to work have up to 6 months to return back to disability if the same problems occur. I am off work for panic disorder and agoraphobia. Recently have developed medical issues too.

Hope this helps.
