I have schizophrenia they are probably going to cut my SSDI

I have no car to go find a job or so I can travel to the job. I had a close by job but they demanded accuracy and me being hyper that doesn't go well. I messed up my job history from quitting jobs, in the past. I have a old dilemma that bothers me still. I have a slit wrist that left me a bit wither from my hand, The fast food places close to me won't hire me. I'm truly screwed, not only that I have musical anhedonia

They need to bring back mental helth units where you could live in a home with people who help you make sure you take meds get to work and live a somewhat functional life

@RisingMorningStar7 they used to have those
Until democrats said, oh, it's inhumane, they should live free and not have to have rules and people watch over them.

So it started in california, and they just started shutting down mental health facilities.Basically, the people went to the streets.They were given a bottle of pills until you'll be okay.Just take them if you have mental health issues.You don't remember to take your pills all the time or you forget that you already took the pill.

They used to find jobs for people.It might be serving coffee or whatever at mcdonald's.It was at least something to go do to where you still interacted with people in a normal functional way.

Setting around taking a pill watching t v all day is horrible.It destroys yourself esteem..
I almost went crazy in covid.Just because I had a contact suspect.So I had to stay at home for ten days...

@dale74 well, I'm in the same boat. I need a job but is hard for me to find a job that doesn't trigger my insecurities.

@RisingMorningStar7 have you sought help about your insecurities?There are books at the library on how to overcome insecurities.

@dale74 No, I thought I could do it on my own. But now everything has become more expensive so I can't get therapist.

@RisingMorningStar7 well, you could always try checking in to a mental health hospital
