Feel like I won't be able to have a career

I just turned 25 and I have been so stressed with my current job, I am on disability now since I can barely move my body since I am always weak, achey and can't workout for a while. My doctor thinks its due to stress.

I know there is no cure although my CFS has gotten much worse and my symptoms have been a daily occurrence now. I'm worried I won't be able to work for a while and I feel like I will have no future. My previous job almost fired me for missing work. I have bipolar which makes it worse. I went from getting symptoms every once and a while to everyday. I'm hoping I can eventually find a job but I am so discouraged. This is torture and I don't want to feel like this forever. Any encouragement and positive stories are much needed
