My therapist is encouraging me to get a job and work 1-2 days a week.

I'm currently looking for part time work, about 20-25 hours a week. I think it's good to have a little structure. If working is a little too stressful, what about volunteering?

I guess I'm ready for it. I need the money too. I just really need to keep Ssdi for now too. I can only work probably 16 hours a week and where I inquired wants to hire for 25-30 hours.

I'm just thinking things out

my counselor has encouraged that in the past, but I had to point out that keeping disability is a big deal right now, so she's kind of simmered down/backed off a notch or two. I mean, I didn't make the rules; I just have to live by them. Lame.

I hope you figure out something work-able.
