Let’s face it — sometimes when you have a chronic illness, disability or mental health condition, it’s not always easy to get to work. Sometimes, it’s like this work meme, which captures what it’s like when you’re barely functioning but still have a job to do:

If you can relate or you’re not able to go to an office at all because it’s not accessible or won’t accommodate your needs, the solution might be a reliable work-from-home job. No more commuting and you’ll have extra flexibility to take breaks as you need in the comfort of your own space. Plus, you can choose full- or part-time positions or even ones that are contract or freelance so you can work at times when you feel up to it but don’t have to stick to the daily grind when it’s just not possible.
