Congratulations.  I just caught up on this thread and you seem to have made tremendous progress!  You really deserve to celebrate this accomplishment!!   

It's really hard to recognize how far we've come sometimes.

I can very much relate as its where i am at right now..I've worked all.my life . once i left nursing i thought I'd just get out there and find a manageable job ..not so.
I crashed 2 wks ago and said i don't feel i can work full time and i don't even know what work i can do ... My cognitive function is just not the same anymore since I've had crashes and long spells off work this past 2 yrs...
Im scared ...
Ive just put a claim in for  benefits ..been signed off by the doc and going to see about the health and disability route ..
I have some savings
