I have no anxiety disorder. I’m okay with doing freelance but don’t think I’m skilled enough. This could buy me some time to solve that problem until I get really good at webdev or poker or something. On the other hand, an acquaintence had trouble getting disability, and she’s very bipolar and prone to full blown manic episodes, pyschotic breaks, etc. so I’m unsure of my chances of even getting it, even if I do decide I want to. I feel a bit guilty about considering it but the possibility of becoming financially independent later assuages my guilt somewhat. Can you elaborate on what qualifies in practice or link to something?
