Is there any money out there for me... I haven't worked in a few months. I'm depressed and unmotivated. I was diagnosed a couple months ago but going through the "pains" of MS for a while. I'm starting over now. No career anymore. What should I do now?

Try Vocational Rehab. You can call the MSAA (Multiple Sclerosis Association of America) at 1-800-532-7667. Ask them for vocational rehab number in your area. They have a workshop where they can help you find a job that will work for you. They even pay you while you work in the workshop. Also, if you would like to do something that required school, they can send you to school...for free! You could learn to be a medical transcriptionist and then you could work from home, or what ever you would like. Vocational Rehab is good at finding people with disabilities a job. That's what they do.
You could also ask MSAA for help in other areas too, like free MRI's or free Wheel chairs, cooling devices, and stuff like that. I hope this helps you.
God bless ya!
