Again this depedends on the individual. When I was diagnosed, I was in my ist year of law school. I made the decision a year after that perhaps practice in the law was not in my best interests as stress impacts my symptoms. I still managed to work full time for a number of years in the public sector where they were accomodating of my treatment and limitations where I flared.

Depends on the degree of disability. Each patient should know his physical limit to avoid the state of exhaustion. Also spend the day sitting on the couch at home is as serious for the general state of health as a state of exhaustion.
