Hey im a 20 year old living with parents, most of you possibly dident know this but i have autism and dyslexia.
Im not allowed to jet a real job because parents dont want me having one and i dont have any means of getting to a job. For some reason im hyperfocused on wanting to make money online and im not quite sure why that is? Ive tried things like surveys but soon found out there worse than slave labor.
I do have ssi but most of it has to go towards my parents, i also heard getting income effects ssi income.
Idk, what would you advise? yes i know i need a hobby aswell in-which i am trying to explore more hobbys.
Im unsure why i cant get a job, but my family is planning on moving soon. i dont think my parents want me to start something big like a job yet, or maybe they think i cant handle it?
Ive tried asking them and they never give me a clear reason.
I think you kinda need one. There are real concerns to working on SSI, from hitting income thresholds and losing SSI, to losing medicaid, or having medicare premiums increase.
Your parents need to tell you what is stopping you from working, because if it’s something like an income threshold or a worry you’ll lose SSI entirely, that will likely need working around.
What happens if you insist on a clear answer, saying this is what you want?
Do you have anyone apart from your parents you can talk to? A friend, therapist, social worker, doctor?
This sounds a bit abusive to me. Did your parents threaten you with any repercussions if you get a job?
If they plan on moving away soon, then that’s a very good opportunity to do some low pressure job searching and get practice with interviewing. If you’re offered a job, you can always just do it until your parents decide to move, however long that is. You’re under no obligation to stay at any job for any minimum duration.
Are you able bodied?
I know it sounds weird but the barrier to entry for a basic job is not very high.
