Entry 4

I hate to admit it: I think S.O. is right. I may not be able to hold down a full-time job due to my unpredictable migraines and my anxiety/depression. I've been out of bed for 2 hours, meds have sort-of worked. If my head wouldn't pound when I laid (lied?) down, I'd go sleep for another 3 hours.

I've been upset that I can't claim these things as a disability.

Once we know that S.O.'s job is secure - or he secures another job, I'm going to look into the disability possibility a bit more. Amazing to me that Indians can claim federal funds just because they were born with "Indian blood" and those of us who really are disabled (even if it is only for 3 or 5 days out of a month) have to jump through hoops - all because I'm white.

Fuck that.
