I think what you really need is a safe space to recover and grow. My pdoc emphasised that reducing stress is important for my recovery. Since you are at risk of harming yourself, a loving and supportive environment seems most important for you right now.

If disability status gives you that space, then it can be helpful. But if you find you are later barred from participating in productive activities needed to develop lost skills or you lose your living allowance, that can be detrimental to recovery.
