My husband got his associate's degree in business management and his bachelor's degree in business administration and couldn't find any jobs in that field that paid enough. He makes more as a kitchen manager, which is a job he could have gotten without his degrees, and now we're stuck paying $358 a month in student loan debt, which is really annoying.

I think everyone who commented on this thread, and your therapist and psychiatrist, just want you to be realistic.

You haven't been doing well. At least, from what I've been reading from you on here. Maybe it IS best for you to just focus on getting better right now and rest/relax your brain and not stress yourself out, and you definitely DO NOT want to lose your SSI! $1550 for a single person is good for SSI.

Anyway, so no one is saying you shouldn't want to better yourself. We all just want you to make sure you're realizing your limitations. Can you work?
