We have the internet and everything in r/ReadingPA. It's almost like a real city. Almost.

Mt Penn has some good mountain bike trails. Neversink too. Drugs are also popular, but try not to get caught up in a gang war. Museum & Planetarium are cute. Lots of pop-up events in summer that you need to check the calendar for.

I had to show the jobs that I applied to through sites like Indeed, LinkedIn, etc. via Careerlink’s website.

There’s a form you’re required to fill out to remain eligible for benefits and it asks for the interviewer’s contact information.

So you can apply for any job, but it’s my understanding you still have to complete the general form on careerlink site.

DM me to discuss if you’d like.

As I clearly stated in my original response to you, I am aware of that. But it's your experience. Not everyone's.

Obviously we'd all love to snap our fingers and have perfect meds for every condition with zero negative side effects. But since that will never be possible, we shouldn't discourage people from at least trying something that could literally save their life.

As someone who is severely ill (with a progressive illness), and married to someone who is also severely ill (with a progressive illness), this is so fucking sad and far too relatable. I'm at least glad they believed they were going to a better place where they'd all be happy and healthy. Imagine if we started actually caring about people in this country.

I'm sorry if the reality of these drugs offends you, but this is the state of mental health medication for many of us. What we need isn't hating on people who suffer, it's more emphasis into developing better drugs rather than continuing to rely on the same types of medications we've been using since the days of institutionalization.
