[QUOTE="in a daze, post: 623960, member: 15832"] Well, here I am at 4:30 in the morning, woke up and couldn't go back to sleep. I am in tears as I write this, because you are all so kind, so understanding, and you are all here for me now. I was in that dark place on Monday, cried on and off all day. Yesterday I held it together for work, felt a little better. I talked to my therapist last night, which really helped me. My son called the manager back. It was opening day at the new store. He told him he couldn't deal with him at that moment and ended the conversation. I'm sure the guy is stressed out as it's the first day of the new store and the last thing he wants to deal with is some guy begging for his job back. My son would not return my phone calls or texts yesterday until 7:30. I was very worried. He had been in his room all day in a deep depression. He said he was safe, no need to go to ER. I called the house manager and he was going to talk to him. Declined to call therapy center to talk to therapist on call or call his therapist and leave message. Hi MWM, he is already on SSI. He contacted Office of Vocational Rehab and had appointment in January. She said since he was moving to north side she would sent his paperwork over there. He called them a week or two ago and they said they would have someone call him. No call yet. I think the funding for these State of Illinois agencies is not good, as the state's fiances are a mess. You may be right as I have a good friend whose daughter is dyslexic and has hearing loss. She disclosed her disabilities and they hired her, but they would not accomodate and fired her. She got her job back after the parents intervened, but then would not give her any hours when she called. So they were playing games with her. She ended up getting an internship with Disney so they did not bother pursueing the matter. He has private insurance through my husband, but if all this does not work out he may have to go on Medicaid and then a social worker can case manage him and get him some services. Many of the social service agencies here in the city have job supports for the mentally ill. I told him I was going to come up and take him to lunch tomorrow and maybe we'd walk up to that office, which is not far from him. Cedar, what book by this author do you reccomend? I am going to read your posts again, everyone. Your words are such a strength and comfort to me. Thank you so much. [/QUOTE]
