I got a job.

Not only that, but I'm working in a mental health field as a peer.

More details to come in a locked entry, but I just wanted everyone to know... after 7 years out of the workforce, a new chronic illness, four surgeries, living with my parents for 5 years, being declared disabled by SSA---

I'm working. I get up, I go to the center

I am so happy for you. The situation you've created and found for yourself is so rare, and one that every earnest, hardworking person yearns for (me included--pat my head and spread some good job mojo around?). Meaningful work with good colleagues is pretty immeasurable on the life:happiness scale. Glad to hear all the joy and gratitude in this entry.
