Someone on here suggested I apply for my state’s vocational rehab program because I struggle with keeping a job. I’m so glad I did, at least so far. For the first time, I’ve been tested and diagnosed with, quote, “a disability that limits you in ways that result in significant impediments to employment”. Getting that letter and the enrollment to start helping me find a better, more stable job felt fantastic. I felt seen.
And then I lost my job less than a week later and had to call my case worker to let her know I’m screwed. Now she has me starting my rehab plan by applying to welfare today.
I finally have real reasons I can’t hold a fucking job. I have reasons why the temp job decided not to move forward with me. I have a disability. I’m just glad I’m going to actually get help.
