I 'was' been long-term unemployed but now I am on disability benefits for severe mental health issues, because that's unfortunately what has become of me. I no longer have a desire to look for work as I just cannot take the corporate world anymore. Anyway, without going into too much detail, I want to start socialising more as I am no longer interested in letting my joblessness stop me, but do get asked “what do you do?” or “where do you work?”. I feel I need to come up with a stock response that doesn't give too many details. What do you guys say when people ask?
