I had to quit my last job over a year ago because of my anxiety, panic disorder, and agoraphobia.
I have been in therapy and on various meds. I have tried everything you can try, read tons of books, you name it I've tried it.
I'm better off than where I was a year ago, but I'm still no where near being able to go to work. I still can't drive very far alone or go anywhere alone. Most of my days my physical symptoms are so bad I have a hard time leaving the house. The meds I am on make me feel so tired I can't do much but sleep, how could I work a job? (I've changed meds a lot for this reason).
It seems like nothing is working. The problem is I have been out of money for over 8 months. My parents are helping me, but they cannot continue to do so. I get $300 a month from the state and am waiting to hear on my social security claim (which will most likely be denied, and even if it wasn't, I wouldn't get more than $500 a month due to my age).
I have to be able to work again - I don't have a choice. I guess I'm wondering if anyone else has been in this position and what they have done. I can hardly wake up in the morning and even doing small errands exhausts me. I really don't think I'm physically capable of working, let alone mentally.
Please help, thank you so much
(I'm in the US btw)
