I Have a Question

How do people live without income? Ive been dealing with this situation over 5 yrs, I used to work in resorts but had to leave cause of two hip implants and a knee surgery, I cant just walk all day cause of that and noone wants to hire me. and i mean noone. I cant get ssi, cant get welfare money cause im single, I can get foodstamps and medicaid but you cant buy toilet paper with foodstamps. I have tried everything to get a job and get nowhere, I get the feeling people are discriminating cause im short, one time when i was handing out samples they sent someone over to train me and she realized i wouldnt be able to reach the stuff on the shelves to count them and mustve told the company cause they wouldnt let me work after that. ive gone to school too so i could live on grants but that dont work if you might have some learning disabilities, i keep getting d's all the time and was on probation and now i got another d which is screwing it up so i cant take more classes. so no more grants now, i live in hud so they wont let you start your own business, i cant even sell avon here so no creating my own job. I dont have a boyfriend to take care of me and my parents are gone and my siblings dont care, Ive thought of donating plasma but the last time ive tried it they couldnt find a vein, so im not so sure that will work, so what do people do when nothing works and you need income and noone will hire you. any suggestions? i do have a friend that will help me out with whatever i need which helps a lot but living with no income can get me in trouble if i ever couldnt afford stuff for allergies like benadryl etc. cause then my throat can close up, any suggestions? Im trying for ssi again but this time on stuff like learning disabilities, etc.
