my son's speech therapist will be here in 5 minutes and i can't stop crying...i just found out that i don't qualify for the long term disability that my work offered because i've had panic disorder in the past (my 1st bout with it was 10 years ago, but i've been doing really welll since then until recently)...so since it was a "pre existing condition" i don't qualify for any disability insurance....i quit my job because i was unable to work, and the only thing that helped was that i would at least get 40% of my income in long term disablitiy...it don't know how we are going to make it financially, we were barely making it when i worked a full time job, but i am unable to work due to a relapse....


i don't know what to do....

(((Heather))) The only thing you can do, is focusing on getting better so you can return to the workforce.

I can't agree more with what Sheri Ann said. Concentrate on you & getting well. It is possible to learn to live on less. What about Social security Disability? Here's the link to the board:
