It feels like you get paid very little and ruin your chances of making it.

Well?

It won't be visible to future employers during the interview process or whatever you're worried about
But... welfare WILL turn you into an entitled, lazy loser with no determination or sense of self worth
I wouldn't listen to anyone espousing a NEET lifestyle, it's just fucking sad
So yes it can theoretically ruin your chances of making it

Disability wouldn't? Just seems like there's something in place to stop people from getting a job after having paranoid schizophrenia for 5 years

Also isn't it little as fuck money too?

Depends on your situation, are you disabled? I'm a state and federal felon and haven't been able to find work since 2014. I also have a mental health disorder and have been hospitalized 7 times in the last 5 years for episodes of varying degrees. Life has been easier with the measly $764 check you get, but if my pops wasn't still around and helping me out then it would totally not be enough. As a single, childless male I only got $120 in food stamps. During one of my rehabilitation phases after an episode, I had to find a place to live while the medication took hold. I attacked my pops in the episode so he was a little terrified. I found a place on craigslist that was around $415-420 after utilities. This was the best situation I could find. It was one large room with no closets and a window a/c the size of small microwave. Ghetto. Would have been homeless though, if I didn't have disability. I was able to make it work. Now I'm feeling healthy the medication seems to be working well and I'm going to try and get a job this week. I'm also a medical cannabis patient. If I wasn't then, I could invest a little in crypto each month and increase my odds of getting off disability. Either way the main question is do you need the assistance? If so, then yes it's worth it. Now that I'm on disability, I have 9 months that I can work while on disability before they take it away. Depending on how much I make during that 9 months, also determines how much of the $764 they still pay me. If I'm working part-time there is a good chance that I'll still get some of a disability check until I have worked 9 months within a 12 month period. If you need it, get it. That's what being American is for.

If you are in USA, disability being worth the hassle depends on your state. In California it's not a bad deal; in poor Southern states it's a shitty grind to get on it, and can be taken away at any time.

A good in-between is food stamps. If you don't have verifiable income it is relatively easy to get on SNAP (food stamps) and that's a good couple hundred bucks a month (again depending on where you are)

For the betterment of society - no. For the betterment of the individual - yes.

> know 26 year old male
> has 7 kids, doesn't see em'
> is known felon - in and out of prison
> doesn't pay cs or even work
> his baby mamas are on sec8 n' stamps
> he is on stamps ($180) n ssi ($700) a month

He died later at the age of 31 due to his condition. In the time he lived, he did nothing for society as a whole. He destroyed multiple lives and left children fatherless. He was all around a piece of shit with no remorse for those around him.

> federal felon
> doesn't work

Your life sounds much like his, but without the kids.

These kinds of people are the people the middle class hate.
