On the other hand, I just received notification that my job application was "unsuccessful" - I didn't even get an interview. In my whole nursing career I have never had this happen, I can't help but wonder if it was because I was honest & disclosed my illness. Who knows, it's not like they're ever going to admit it. I got a little upset, shed a few tears - it's never nice to be rejected. I just hope someone does employ me.....what if I'm unemployable? I feel so useless....not such a great day after all.

Oh this is no good...sorry to hear this. Can you ask them why?
I had a coat hanger bounce up and pierce uder my eye today (1mm off my eyeball) and slipped in the rain and landed straight on my bottom if that makes you feel any better!
But these things you write of are far worse than physical knocks they shake the very fibre of our being. You will get through this. You are more.
I'm not going to ask why, apparently there was a strong field of applicants & people with proir experience in that area of nursing were shortlisted. My psychiatrist was pleased that I didn't get it anyways - says I'm not quite ready.
PS: Enough about me! Sorry to hear about your injuries... are you okay?
It's tough, but don't feel too bad about it. When God closes one door, He opens another.
If your psychiatrist feels you're not ready, he may be right. Taking on potential stressors when you're not totally ready can really weigh you down.
@Janmaree: "whoa" and "ouch!"
"Whenever you ask anyone for anything, remember the following. SWSWSWSW, which stands for 'some will, some won't, so what - someone's waiting.' Some people are going to say yes, and some are going to say no. So what! Out there somewhere, someone is waiting for you and your ideas. ... 'what you want wants you' You just have to hang in there long enough to eventually get a yes"
