Some people seem to think that being disabled or being on
disability means not having to work. They
have it backwards.
It means that you can’t work. No matter how much you want to, no matter how
many ideas you may have, you can’t work.
You don’t stop thinking about it and trying and dreaming and
hoping – and it drives you crazy.
Wherever you go or whatever you do that disability is with you,
limiting you, keeping you down. You
can’t get away from it or break out to do what you want to do. It’s like being locked in a box.
This isn’t a vacation – vacations are great. Time off from a job can be wonderful. You get to step back, relax and recharge
yourself.
Being on disability is not a vacation, it’s hellish, and
there is no vacation from it.
