I think starting a thread could help others who are experiencing similar things. Who knows, maybe it'll inspire you to start a blog about living with your condition which will become a microbusiness of yours which will lead to you getting some money. Boom!

I like your a/t thread, hope you haven't forgotten you made this one.

You seem like you have strong emotional intelligence. Have you considered spending some of your time volunteering with a cause you enjoy? If it's a good organization, they should have volunteer management that can find a spot for you. Be clear to them about what your capacity is, but it may turn out they're looking for a copy editor or someone who can put together a newsletter. You'd be a volunteer so there's little risk in losing the position but it could open up a lot of possibilities to network and it would help you pad out your resume.

In short, volunteer some place, if they're halfway decent they'll find good, meaningful work for you that can help you network to a real job or prepare your resume to look better.
