MDJunction to me

MissNikkiAnn"When you have an illness with the name "Non-Familial Dysautonomia" (a name that most people, and even doctors, have never heard of), you need a network
of people who understand the name and the symptoms/issues that come with it.
MDJunction led me to that network of people during a very confusing and sickly time. For this I am thankful. And for this reason I try my best to give back to other members the same care and help that I received through MDJunction.

Hey Tyger - I worked as a mechanical erngineer for 35 years. Often times engineering jobs are sorta the type of job where you sit in a small office by yourself a lot of the time.

I am no help at all. I am disabled due to my bipolar. I do babysit my grandchildren part time. I hope you find something that you like to do. The jobs I have liked the best were the ones where I was largely unsupervised and working alone. Customer service is what I liked the best.

Hi Misty, my sister has had a very successful job for several years! She constantly struggles with her relationships with her co-workers, and looks for new jobs from time to time, but surprisingly enough is able to keep the same job and does really well at it! She does employment placement for large manufacturing firms.

Wow those are good suggestions....I have been told by a doctor that I need to go on disability and by my work history I would have to agree but not sure if it is what I want to do or not....Sad

I am thinking about going back to school and already have my AA degree in liberal arts so now decision time!

Thanks for all the replies!!!!

So you are in the military. I wondered from your other post. I am proud of you for serving your country.
