Jobs for people with disabilities.


Question Posted Monday October 31 2016, 11:18 am

So my anxiety is so severe that it's honestly considered a disability. I can't work at most jobs, especially those around people.

I don't want to live off of disability. I would rather kill myself. I want to work so desperately, no one has any idea how badly I want to work. But every work I find, I just can't do because of my intense disability.

So anyone, please give me some suggestions on what jobs people with disabilities can do!

I've seen similar questions, always what a person with severe anxieties can do for work. If you stay anxious, the job possibilities are very slim but for people who qualify as disabled, they also qualify to work with a social worker whose sole job it is to do job placements and backup support for disabled people. I suggest you check with DSHS, Dept of Social and Health Services in your area to see if you can get scheduled with such a person. I used to be a caregiver and my client had a job counselor. This is getting to know your skills and the limit of what you can handle emotionally and then finding the job for you. You do not do any job hunting on your own which I think takes off some of the anxiety already.

If you are as desperate as you say, how about how desperate you are to be rid of anxieties rather than to work so desperately. Wanting the work before wanting the emotional health is like putting the wagon in front of the horse. For the best success, you may want to not give up on getting rid of anxieties. I used to have severe social anxieties as a kid and during sr. year of HS I was cured.

SO either you try a job placement social worker or write me and ask for the info on non drug treatment of anxieties. I wish you the best!.

Have you contacted Goodwill Industries. They specialize in finding jobs for the disabled. I would also contact the salvation army and the disabled veterans of America.
