Hi everyone,

I've been diagnosed with a mental illness since 1996 and had my share of ups and downs with it. It seems to be okay as long as I take my meds. It's caused me to do some irrational things though, but that was when I wasn't on my meds. It's pretty much managable, I just can't work and that is a pain. It's hard to fill the day with stuff to do. I'm trying to work from home and see how that works out. It's the boredom I can't stand, anyway, enough from me.

Hi Surferdude. :)

Welcome to Psychlinks. :welcome2: Plenty to read in the forums which can keep you busy for quite a while.

I am long term disability too, because of PTSD. Once in a while I feel bored, but I have to admit, not that often. I know I can't handle the stress of a job so I volunteer my time instead.

Have you considered volunteering?

Glad your here. :)

Ladylore,

Yeah I have. I'm trying to get a part time job to supplement my disability income though. I have thought about volunteering though and looked into it, but not that seriously. I'd rather work and get some income coming in because if I have to go somewhere, I might as well get paid for it, even though there is some satisfaction in volunteering different from working.

Into the light,

I've thought about mowing lawns, it's getting out the door day after day that get's me, doing the same thing everyday takes a toll on me. Right now I'm working on passing out leaflets to get some extra money.
