I wish I could get that sort of diagnosis. I hear disability doesn't pay too horribly...

OK I lie. People have some pretty pathetic reasons for going on disability but I still would rather be healthy and have to work than be paid off for doing nothing. Not sure how I could live with myself. I guess you get used to it.



You have no idea how much I would love to throw away this disability I have and work again.

Someone telling me I was crazy wouldn't stop me at all. Crazy people work they just found someone to give them an excuse not to.

Two and a half years and I'm not used to it yet. I always worked before so this is torture for me. I like being busy and productive.

Disability pays crap but plenty do it just because a little money to be lazy works for them.

I dont plan on getting into this fully with you, but i will say this: Some people have a stroke and go back to work. Others are incapacitated by it and are unable to work. Some people have mental illness and are able to work (heck, i used to be one of them, until my illness worsened and i was forced to give up work), others are incapacitated by it and are unable to work.

Dont judge someone until you've walked a mile in their shoes.

I get a disability check from the government but I am allowed to work also.

Its only a grand a month but its a nice tax free chunk of change, that isnt counted as income.

However its for injuries sustained while on active duty.

Lazy stroke victims always have some lame excuse why they can't limp in to work...
