Even though you have illness, you would want to have some sense of fulfillment, to have income and be able to interact as part of society. But the regular jobs are sometimes too stressful and it is difficult for people with these illnesses. Do you know of other alternatives?

I am best one example of it.,Due to health problem regular jobs are not possible for me or very tough job. A person who have problem of depression must be keep them self busy. I think online jobs are best one option of it, With it we can busy us and also earn some amount.

I think any work at home job would be good. Freelance writing, surveys, blogs, etc. You are not going to get wealthy quick, but it's something.

@yoalldudes The work may seem monotonous, but if you really need something, anything, surveys are good.

@Spontaneo I learn that surveys also makes you learn about products and stuff.

I realized that surveys pay well. I'm amused they are willing to pay 3 dollars for a few minutes of answering questions and giving opinions.

That might be taxing to the body. Sooner I will get depressed from the monotony of it.

@skysnap That is a fresh way of looking at it. Too much pressure is what destroys the joy from working.

You can search it in the net, I don't know what could be the best job. Maybe in the pet shop, or animal cafe, or veterinary.

@yoalldudes Maybe I spoke too soon because I don't think we have that much animal cafe over here.

When reading your reply, I thought of these furry, adorable dogs. And yes I've tried googling, haven't found anything that feels perfect. But I'll keep digging. Thanks.

It depends on your preference. Like when you love music you can be a disc jockey in FM station.

We should do what we love and enjoy doing right? And of course what we do good or have talent in.

My worry is I feel ashamed announcing to the world I have these illnesses. But I think it is a good idea. I will have to think of a creative way to do it. And partly I am doing that here, telling fellow myLotters my illness.
