I've had to for a decade. Desperately trying to figure out how to move beyond it because it's just not enough.

@thepreposterouspanda The benefits in this state are meagre or slim pickings as we used to say.

@SW-User It sucks because it's all based on what you did prior to being disabled. I was an assistant manager at a pizza place, so... just boned. 😂

@thepreposterouspanda I didn't know that. I'm classified as moderately disabled by the state but never applied for disability income because they said I'd have to take it to court with a doctor as witness. I'm not willing to be under a doctor's care anymore, so I just live on less and less.
