I have depression, anxiety, an eating disorder, and just got diagnosed with a mood disorder as well. Between hospitalization and doctor's appointments, I've missed a lot of work, and my boss told me the other day that I'm in risk of being fired.

The job is extremely stressful and definitely makes my anxiety worse, plus it's only part-time, so it's not exactly paying the bills as it is (I'm living with my parents, and they help with a lot of my expenses). I'd really like to be out of this situation and just quit.

I've looked into options a little bit. I'm already doing some freelance writing from home, which would be a perfect job for me except it pays even less than what I have now. I've also applied to become an Avon Sales Representative, which again would be easy to manage but wouldn't bring in much money. And with all my diagnoses, there's a good chance I'm eligible for disability, but it would take months for the paperwork to go through, so I can't take that risk without knowing for sure that I'd get accepted.

Just wondering if there are any options I've missed? Or suggestions about other work-from-home jobs I could look into?

There is a really long work at home thread in this forum. It still gets activity from time to time. If you search "work at home" you should find it. It has a ton of stuff that would be redundant to repeat ... assuming any one person could rename them all

Hey,
If writing is your thing, you may look at freelance(dot)com, or elance(dot)com

Try a website called flexjobs.com. The are a legit gatherer of job postings for around the US and the world. Some are only telecommute options, others are office based. It is worth the subscription. Good Luck!
