B,
I totally understand where you are coming from. I don't see how I would be qualified to decide that for myself right now. I understand that I need to help myself and understand the meds I'm taking, hence how I found this site, but when I feel good again, does that mean I'm cured and can go off the meds or am I feeling good because the meds are working and I shouldn't go off of them!As far as work, as long as you're not homeless, get help for yourself first and rest and conquer this. I am not working either, unless you call being a housewife and mother a JOB. It just seems like everyday life for me! But when I was working there were times when I would call into work sick. Sometimes for a week, sometimes 2 weeks. I just couldn't deal, I don't know why but I would hide in the house and lock the doors and turn off everything. I did spend alot of time watching movies though. I love spending a couple of hours involved in something that I don't think about me and the way I feel. I could watch movies all day long, those where the times I felt pretty good. No worries, I was involved in someone else's life on the silver screen!
I know that things have to get better. There is hope. And we need to hold on to that hope. Life might not turn out the way we want it to but, we need to live it the best way we can.
Thanks for sharing with me, get ahold of me if you need to talk.
