im on disability. i got it when i was 23. i get what is called survivor's benefits- basically the money my dad put into the system... i get this because he died before i turned 18.

i was approved on the first try in a couple months. i was living in a mental health facility at the time, which i stayed in for almost 5 years. i started working a part time job in 2014, and i am still working there while receiving disability. however, i see disability as a bit of a trap in my situation , and i entered the ticket to work program in jan this year to get off my disability, hopefully by next year.
