Hey. I wanted to ask if you know or have experience about this. Although I could stay at home and bum money from financial support, I'm not gonna be happy living as a homebody, doing nothing nor earning nothing just because of my difficulties.
I probably can't participate in typical 8 hours a day 5 days a week work routine although I wish I could manage it, so I've been thinking of self-employment. Competition will be harsh though, regardless of field. So, i thought to ask, which skills would be most crucial for a self-employed person with mental illness or other factors that limit their performance unlike for a healthy person? Can you recommend me articles, videos or other resrouces on the subject for example?

And what's your honest opinion on the subject: Can a person with mental illness be successful in business/compete with normal people, or are we just "stuck" being (I hate saying it this way but that's how I feel about it) "lesser people" whose only hope to ensure better quality of life is to get a wealthy spouse and live extending their ego?

(sorry about the probably stressed tone in my text)
