How to cope when you have a disability/ mental health and are unemployed?

How to not feel like a loser/ worthless not being able to contribute as a member to society; and fill your time, I try to volunteer or make up for it, but sometimes I compare myself to other people my age and feel pathetic :( I want to be kind to myself while working to change my life. #unemployed #Work #Student #Shame #tough #sad #Comparison #Anxiety #Depression #help #Support

A Bit Of Comedy

Having a laugh is a good thing. Sometimes we need a good #Laugh when things are #tough . I really try to make the #best of things and do what it is that I need to do. I am looking forward to more mental clarity though. Right now, I have been feeling foggy brained.

Are you resilient?

It's been 4 months since my boss demoted me, cut my pay, and created a new position That I now report to and promoted one of my colleagues to that new position. In a conversation about it she made an offhand remark:

"Some people are just more resilient."

I don't know why that one statement has such with me, bothers me so much. I pretty sure she was implying that I'm not resilient. She knows about my physical and mental health issues, about the sexual assault trauma I've experienced, but I don't think she understands.

Synonyms for #resilient include #strong #tough #bouyant and #irrepressible . I think the fact that I keep going despite what I've been through proves I'm all of those things.

What about you? Has anyone who has no real clue what you've been through accuse you of not being resilient enough? Don't listen to them. I believe you are!

tough month

anyone else find that people normally only want to talk or hangout or associate whenever you're not going through a tough time? seems like people act like it's more of an inconvenience to them whenever someone is going through a mental health crisis rather than an inconvenience to the person who's actually going through it. I'm generally very open about discussing my mental health and when I'm going through a tough time, however I'm finding lately people seem to be disassociating rather than being supportive and act like it's their issue rather than something I'm going through. I can completely understand why people refuse to discuss their mental health in fear of this happening. its incredibly disheartening to know that someone you love or need when times are tough are generally only there when things are going well. #Depression #Anxiety #Relationships #tough #MentalHealth #emotional
