#working while disabled

[shadowessays]

to do list

survive the work day - mask, flow like water as much as possible, keep a list, breathe

do 1 load of laundry

order some groceries

reframe: if you do these things, this day will be a huge win!!!! you are low on energy, you are out of routine. this means that anything you do today to love and take care of yourself is commendable, even if no one else in the entire world sees it

"But how do you work if you're disabled" Did you even watch House 🤨 take notes

Spoon supply low at *checks watch* 1 pm, perfect

I am hanging on by a thread, and my friends, this job is wielding a big ol' pair of scissors

Screaming screaming screaming screaming

I seriously hate my job at times.

I don't have the stress resilience to deal with this crap 😭

On one hand I cannot be bothered, like I genuinely cannot be fucking bothered to care about this shit and that makes it really hard to be invested, pay attention, and keep a good grasp on what is going on.

On the other hand I feel constant horrific stress because everyone wants things of me and I'm terrified and exhausted and just want to escape.

The first point (being so terminally uninterested in this stuff that I literally can't be bothered) does not help the latter point (constant stress and terror over potentially being at fault for stuff not working), of course.

Hey, controversial take maybe, but I think it shouldn't be legal to pay disabled employees less than able ones just because they are disabled. I think employers who do that should get a slap on the wrist and more.

The brain fog is so badly these days. I don’t even remember my name at times. I forgot how to do the most basic skills and at times I forgot these days how to properly do my job.

I’m so fatigued and everything is hurting. Everything is so tensed up.

While I ate dinner tonight it hurt so much to open my mouth bcs my jaw was so tensed up…

I do not know when I take vacation time. I need it dearly but I know the moment I have off time, my health is fucking me over.

Was an exhausting work day. 70 calls. Some rude customers.

Current situation with addition of; I had to pay neurologist out of pocket on my credit card or he wouldn’t see me. And my primary actually looked for the braces himself since the ones he has are stupidly expensive for the same thing

I also might be having seizures again, my hours have been cut, and so far no one will hire me for at least a job I can sit down doing that works with my kid.

Today going to look into that outschool thing, try to brainstorm how to teach the only thing that I know how to do, drawing, online somehow with only a phone to record. And get the rest of my art digitalized to sell.

And finish making my thumb brace. And fucking catch up on homework
