Back Injury

So it's been 2 years since I was rearended on my way to work, just after I'd gotten a promotion. I thought I was fine, but a few days later I realized I wasn't, and I was on a walker for 9 months before I walked or drove my car again. I was denied disability even while I was on a walker because nerve damage is invisible. But it's nerve damage on top of the nerve damage I already had from a previous abusive relationship, and it doesn't go away. There are days when I do very well, and there are days when I feel like I'm going to pass out or throw up. I taught myself to walk and drive again, and work because I have to. People at work are sometimes nice and sometimes mean when I have to sit down or take a break. Breaks aren't guaranteed, after all. Some days are 9 hours with a half hour lunch. It's difficult. I've been without a home for over a year, and still trying to regain my footing. Motels are expensive. I have an eviction due to the wreck, and a downpayment on a place is impossible at this point, anyway.

I'm trying to get out of this mess, but help is needed still, as is stability. I've been moving around for what seems like forever, and there have been people who have helped temporarily, but the journey isn't over yet. One day at a time.
