I am sorry for your discomfort. I believe that with te number of people needing help these days the system is overburden with request. I would make a suggest that you go to your local vocational rehab or your church and get an advocate to help you navigate the system to receive some help while waiting. Please do not get upset it will only delay you getting better. nix the idea your mother gave for that may land you in jail and that is not the kind of help you need. Know that many come with the same story and have made it though. Pray for patience for you will need it and pray for understanding. Good luck and God bless you.
