When I was in the no income period of disability (which was only 3 months for me) I found swagbucks.com which is a way you can earn some money online. I still do it. Depending on how much time you are willing to put in you can earn gift cards (including paypal) that can help. I generally make $50 per month (less right now because I'm not feeling well enough to work at it). It's got a lot of ways to earn; I get most of mine through using their search engine, surveys, and watching videos (which I do with the sound off and while I do other things so I pay little attention to what is on the screen). It's not like it pays well and it takes patience and practice with knowing what works for you to earn but it can help a little bit (and there are people who make a lot more than I do).
