due to a medical condition, under orders of a doctor, my availability went from full time, to 3 shifts a week. I informed my workplace, and they have stopped scheduling me completely. I have worked there for 7 months. I am a full time student recently diagnosed with anxiety and depression.

I was employed for 15 years as a teacher. Two years ago, I had to take sick leave to take care of my wife who requires 24 hour care-giving. My sick benefits ran out, I then applied for LTD. Since stopping work to caregive, I am now diagnosed with caregiver burnout, depression and sleep deprivation. LTD has declined my application for LTD, on the basis: if I am capable of being a caregiver for my wife, I could work. Depression controls me, Fear controls me...Sleep deprivation rules.... Any advice would be appreciated
