That was my goal scott, to return to work and main stream society.
After i had my breakdown, I didnt work for 18 months, and was only leaving the house late at night to go to the grocery store and pharmacy, in a suburb some way from where I lived (so I didnt bump into someone I know)
With the right cocktail of drugs (and a kiss in the keeshter from the unemployment insurance people) I got a fairly menial warehouse job, which I did for 6 months, i then moved to Darwin, where I knew there was a labour and skills shortage, and got a job as a warehouse supervisotr, which i stuck at for a year, then i struck gold, and managed to land a job as a supply chain coordinator for a major manufacturing company (the position i held when i want nuts)
I am not rehabilitated (apart from relying on Xanax, Zoloft and Edronax to do it) - my next goal is to transfer this job back to my home city.
I know you can do it when they get your meds right - if that takes a while, dont let unemployment get to you, you arnt a moocher, you're ill and you're being supported by social security, when you do get back to work, your taxes will be supporting other ill people while then need it - thats how I look at it anyway
Re school, I realy should start studying, but not sure if i have the motivation
