> All these messages sound great, but what if you don't have that option????? I would be taking such great care of myself IF I had that option. The reality is, i'm single have many bills a month, disability? what's that? There is no one there to support me. If I EVEN applied for support, apparently it takes up to a year and then it doesnt' help you to help yourself. gives you a fraction of nothing per month and you can't make more than zero in order to qualify.
> Sometimes, there are no options.....I wish I'd been born in a more progressive country where they really take care of their people, in situations like this. not in america - the land of the free - huh!
> If there is anyone in America getting financial support here I'd love to know where and how.
> thanks.
> katiaKatia:
I do feel your pain. The only reason I was writing about disability was because you asked how people worked with depression. I basically was saying that I tried it for years and could no longer do it.
I too now wish I lived in a country that takes care of you. I didn't wish that years ago, though.
