I’ve suffered with two chronic illnesses for years. This year I quite my job as it was making me so unwell and I couldn’t cope with it. I now “work with my partner” I basically help out when I can and feel well enough but haven’t worked at all this week. Im in my late 20s and can’t handle not working or being well enough to do anything I miss work I want to have my career back I’m lucky I have savings at the moment and my partner can support me but savings don’t last for ever. I just want to wake up and be able to go to work see friends and not be in constant pain or having to nap. I ended up in hospital this week and it really nocked me back as i couldn’t sleep while I was there and I’m still in pain. Normally I’m very positive and try and look on the bright side like I’m in a warm house I have a wonderful partner but right now it’s so hard how do I not start to feel jealous of my friends and family who all have great jobs and earn well when I can hardy get out the house at the moment.
