Adjusting to a new onset illness or disease is difficult. I think it is pretty normal to feel like you don't want to go back to work. Going to a lesser paying job and reducing your SS benefits is a terrible predicament to be in. Will your doctor support you in going on disability until you can get SS benefits? This is one way to go about things.

How are you feeling? Do you feel better on your meds? Are you feeling more stable now? I know you have been very concerned about your future. Try not to stress too much. Easier said than done, I know but it will help you if you can try to find a way to relieve stress. Keep us up to date on things.
