I've been suffering for about a year with this disorder, and while there are days when I am perfectly capable of functioning, most of the time I'm unable to carry out even the most rudimentary tasks. I'm not particularly interested in the financial remuneration aspect, but in the retraining assistance. I've looked around and there aren't very many resources available for someone in my position, even so, I still need an official diagnosis, which takes long enough as it stands.Jan 20th, 2015Someone from Everett, WA signed.
