So I'm not sure if this is fully community-appropriate, but I figured you folks would know and I could take it down if it's not.

I'm 25 and in the US. I just got a decent job after being unemployed, but the caveat is No Benefits. This means, of course, that in six months, I'll be AWOL on docs and scripts and be basically unable to work. (I have two kinds of dystonia, RSD, and migraines.) Clearly, it's a Situation.

It's been suggested that since Vocational Rehab is taking forever in my area (two visits, since I got in the system in June), I might see a social worker about what my options are, possibly through the same hospital system my main specialists are through. A-okay. But how does one go about doing that?

(Other alternatives are also welcome.)

I literally have no idea when I can next see voc rehab - when I was unemployed, they saw me once every six months or so. If we're keeping that schedule, I'll be less than a month out from losing all insurance when I next see her.
