[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]A doctor will not label me as temporarily disabled because I'm not. I feel as though I am not only capable of working, but that I will benefit from doing so. My therapist agrees with me. [/quote] [b]How long have you been seeing this therapist for? I was under the assumption that you only started seeing them after the death, which was 2 weeks ago?[/b] That is nowhere near enough time for a therapist to get to know someone well enough to judge that they are doing that great with the death and would be ready for work. They don't know how you normally handle yourself, if you are an emotional person, and if so, if you normally show these emotions or hide them. I could fake it as well at a therapy appt, and not even with trying, but that doesn't mean I am able to handle going back to work. I think the therapist is agreeing that you need to keep yourself busy, but finding a new position with people you don't know and working with kids, where like other PPs mentioned, don't allow you to be able to have a breakdown mid-day if it were to happen. I think the other suggestions of volunteering for a while, where you could freely leave if you were to get upset about something would be best, then start with a PT position and move into FT work again.[/quote] I have a history with this therapist. I saw them for about 4 years but then stopped seeing them for about 2 1/2 years. Now I've been seeing them again for the last few weeks. [/quote]
