@Charlie414 Hey Charlie. I am in Canada, and it is very similar here. I was very fortunate that I started working at 18 and had jobs often on until I was 27 when I left my government job to have my son and move closer to my family. I thought that because of my experience, I wouldn't have a hard time finding a job. I was wrong. It took me 10 years to find another job. The only advice I can give you is that what saved me is networking. That's pretty much how I found most of the jobs I've gotten is through other people. Mostly through other blind people. But I have given this a lot of thought, and I honestly think that entrepreneurism is the way to go if you can't convince anyone to hire you. I don't know what kind of resources you would have in South Africa to help you start your own business. And yes, it's a lot of work, I know that and I know it's also not for everyone. But I also know what a struggle it is to look for jobs day in and day out, knowing that you were qualified, and the toll that takes on your mental health.
