Hi there, if you are fine with the idea of taking medication to help you, then you really CAN do it. Granted, not every day is a breeze, but when taking your meds you are much more stable and can handle more than usual. Please add me to your friends and let me know what you dk. I would love to support you.

i'm terrified of working because i'm worried that i can't handle it. i am on disability and i could lose my health insurance if i get a full time job and then have to quit. i'm going to start with volunteer work and a possible part time job to test my ability and still feel secure
