What does everyone who is suffering from this awful disorder do for work?

The pain is so bad. Truly the worst pain I’ve ever had the displeasure of experiencing. All I can do is lay in bed in the fetal position and cry until it subsides. I never know what my pain level is going to be. I haven’t been able to work for almost 3 months. I work in retail so I’m on my feet all day.

What do you do for work or do you get disability? If you do how difficult was it for you to get approved?

Also I’m in the U.S but I would love to know what everyone does :)
