Which is a really long time if you think about it, job wise.
And interestingly, it was her first acting job!
Prior to that, she was waiting tables, and was barely making ends meet.
She had mentioned that she was, "so desperately unemployed."
She continued talking about how it felt to have a regular paycheck.

“I knew that being in an HBO show was amazing but more than anything I knew that having a regular paycheck from something that wasn’t waiting tables was amazing.” she finished.
So that was one way it saved her life, but what was the other?

“Daenerys really saved my life because it puts you in quite the headspace when you’ve had a brain injury," she said.
Daenerys gave her the strength that she needed to survive her own life!
