I`m on disability

Tweet

I am on disability, have been for almost 20 years now . Not that I wanted to be but my socialworkers put me on it . They told me I wouldn`t be able to keep a job, cause at the time my nerves were bad , and wouldn`t be able to handle the stress, or responsibilities involved in keepeing a job . Also around the same time they told me , I wasn`t allowed to even go to school or I would lose my allowance . So at first I didn`t do anything with my life , after a few years I asked myslf What am I supposed to do with my life, I mean Why am I here anyways? Just to sponge off everybody for the rest of mylife? No , I said to myslf. So I did go back to school without telling them . I did get my degree in Computer Tech and Network Specialist II . It took almost 4 years to complete , but I did it . Then I was told by everyone I didn`t have enough experience so I still couldn`t find work . Now almost 20 years after , I was diagnosed with MS and my vision has gotten worse as well I can barely walk anywhere . So now I call my worker and ask them What am I supposed to do when I cannot walk to the grocery store anymore, When I can`t go to the bank, or even sign my name ? All they say is , You don`t have family who can help? No I don`t they don`t live anywhere near me . So what would you do move back with my family and rely on them for everything, I don`t have health insurance either so I can`t afford to go to a Nursing Home and my family can`t either. So because I listened to the workers I also don`t have any Pension either because I never worked long enough . What would you do? I need some good advice here .I mean there are times I wonder if I would have a case to sue for not allowing me to work . I felt like I was being blackmailed all those years not to find a job and now and in the future I will always have to rely on others because I listened to them . What would you do? Thank you very much.
