Yes, working is the better way. Even if you can only work a little, it will help income wise and it will make a large mental difference. In no way, have I ever seen, could you keep your self-respect or your privacy and feel whole and be totally within the public assistance spectrum. It's a very marginal existence in which you give up a lot internally to keep yourself very minimally provided for. If there is the feasible alternative of work, it is the best for you. I hope our society will change and improve to the point where it always makes financial sense and we have the ability to allow everyone who wants to to have a job doing something, as they explained it to me in another country.
