Hello Living With,

You're not alone. I understand exactly what you are going through.
I too lost my job and now cannot find another. Still waiting after over 5 months to see if I qualify for disability. Will be loosing my insurance, and they would only pay for 20 visits to therapy. Must now do the therapy by myself. Going through a divorce, two teenagers. RSD in my dominent hand and shoulder.

Just try to remember, you are not alone anymore.

Debbie
