You've been down a tough road man, I've been in physio for years myself and haven't been able to work for a year as I recover from surgery after surgery. My injuries aren't to the extent of yours, but I'm usually unable to walk or stand for more than fifteen minutes so I certainly understand what your going through. Often a trip to physio is the highlight of my week, despite the pain, being in such caring hands can be a tremendous relief.
The times I feel the worst about my situation are when I worry about not being able to pull my life out of what I perceive as a downturn. Sometimes I'm afraid of how difficult it will be for me to find work again because of my limitations, especially considering how long I've been out of the workforce for. Other times I feel down, because I'm not able to go out and have fun with my friends like I used to, but you just need to pull yourself up and never let it get you down.
I always remind myself that my pain can't conquer me, that even if my body isn't what it used to be my brain is still fine. Try taking a class at school to get yourself back into thinking mode, it would look great on a resume and I'm sure you would enjoy it.
Good luck to you, don't give up and find confidence in yourself!
