Hey All

I'm sure this has been discussed before, but I didn't see it in the last few pages (feel free to tell me to look harder!)

Do you think there is a certain point one can reach when they should really look into disability? I've always thought I'd be able (or wouldn't have a choice) to work through my illness, but lately I've been feeling... dangerous, I guess(?), at work. I've always been a danger to myself, but very rarely yo anyone else. I'm unprofessional, rude and snap at people. I also tend to throw things (when no one is around) and
Possible trigger:
On the other hand, I also fear losing my lasts visage of freedom, which is having my own income.

Is anyone here on disability? If you made the choice yourself, when/why did you make that choice? Any and all thoughts/comments appreciated.

i have thought about disability before when i was really struggling. i worked in an office with a phd who did evaluations for people applying for disability. he told me you have to have been unemployable for a year due to your illness.
