Well WC doesn't go civil court or mediation because they to Workers comp court. Don't let your lawyer freak you out -sure WC sucks, but you have a solid case (like I did). It may take you some time, but you CAN win.
All this crap is overwhelming at first..I used to just sit and cry. And I never cried before I had RSD. I live several hundred miles from my parents and siblings, and if one of them called me I couldn't even speak on the phone. I would just cry once I heard their voices...ugh. I was truly a mess.
I have to say that it just gets a little better over time. You get used to the new you, etc. I still cry, but not as often...

But all of that is a heavy load, I just can't 'walk' away from. I do try to do much research on my own, but that in itself can overwhelm you, and I just have to walk away.
Thanks bunches,
