I was injured at work and I lost my job over it?

[blaisdell]

Hello,

Wondering if anyone can help. I have a muscular back injury at work about 9months ago and being a full time casual worker they sacked me 2 weeks later. Before I was fired I went through physio therapy and was on the mend and about to start full duties when out of no where I was fired. I loved that job and had some very close friends.

Now I could only find part time work in a job I really hate. I occasionally get back flare ups but cannot afford physio therapy. Instead iam stuck with an injury and no possible compensation (I have spoken to my solicitor). I feel constantly depressed and rejected by the world. Even in my current office base job I am in constant pain with my injury but iam too scared to say anything incase I get fired. I can't seem to trust any employer and the thought of working for myself is even worse cause if my injury flares up iam on my own. I just don't know what to do as I cannot afford professional help.

My wife and her family just tell me to get over it and think iam carrying on.
