Living with Chronic Illness: My Journey to Employment

Hi, my name is terri but I go by tiki. I live in Ohio and have quite a few illnesses that inhibit my ability to work. I’m currently looking through a job coach and am working on possibly getting off disability if I’m able to handle work. I don’t know if it’ll happen but I can try right?

I wish I could work. But mental health issues and COPD Has me really low. I just don’t know because of the economy too. 😔 😥 ❤️ 🤗 💕 🙌

Hey!! I’m also from Ohio. Idk how close you may be to either, but there are some amusement parks here that I 100% recommend. My anxiety can get veryyy bad and my team at the amusement park is super accommodating. Job coaches are also encouraged there. It can be wild with so many people around you, but depending on what you do, you can take plenty of breathers and have an amazing support system
