Doing what I can as soon as it's normal people hours tomorrow.

Will make it through this, man.

Just hold on to your kitty and I will do everything in my power to help out.

(which doesn't mean that you all shouldn't help the man if you're able or want to as well, my resources are finite and cripples are mostly organizers)

In the old days, I'd just have knocked over..oh, never mind. :)

Have you ever looked into working at a Community Center or somewhere like that Dub? I work at one and they seem to be more understanding about conditions like yours. I'm bipolar, and sometimes...well...I'm just crazy. There's no nice way to put it. Even with medication, it still fucks up my entire life. Luckily the places I've been have been understanding. The Community Center is great and as much as I hated Whole Foods, they are a great company to work for too.

Neither of those options will net you that much money, but it's an option to look into at least. Either that or take homie up on the KC basement offer! :) I'm in Overland Park, he's in KC, let's start a band.

Dude, wherever you are go apply at Guitar Center. Most of the people there don't even play guitar.

Not to be a debbie downer but I've had clients with hardcore mental illnesses who have been denied over and over again. DON'T GIVE UP. I mean, on average my peeps get denied at least four times. But if you keep appealing it should work out. Never reapply. Always appeal. And you will get backpay from the date you first applied.

Not a mental illness, bro, a mental attitude.

Hope so, too. Been wanting to say something encouraging here but haven't known what to say. Hang in there, dude.

If the weathers nice it will definitely help a bit to go outside if you can. I'm not a very outdoorsy type, but I feel real down and want to lay in bed all day I'll force myself to go for a walk in a nearby park or something. It usually clears my mind enough to turn things around a bit.

That's some good advice. Forcing yourself to interact with people on a positive level can also brighten moods.
