So the job would be full time which I can’t do because it would make me lose my disability benefits.

So I decided to do the ticket to work program with social security instead. I’m waiting to hear back from one of the network providers for ticket to work. I just left a message last night with one from the list they provided me with. They provide job placement, job coaching, onsite job coaching if necessary, benefits counseling, and job accomodations etc. you have like a 9 month trial period where you c an make as much money as you want without it affecting your benefits at all. I’m hoping to get a job where I only work like 15 hours a week. That would be a lot more manageable with my mental health. Can’t do 45 hours a week. Even 20-25 when I was with my last job was pushing my limits with my mental health. 15 hours would be manageable.
