I (24F) was considering going onto disability (I'm Canadian and bpd persons do qualify for it) due to having consistent issues holding down a job &amp; finding my bpd pretty debilitating most days. 

I have a son whose in second grade and I live at home with my parents who are in their mid 60's, nearly retired and who don't offer any financial support (and never will). 
I'd like to hold down a job for longer than 6months-1year, but it doesn't seem like it's in the cards for me and I don't want anyone to suffer at my hand because of it. 


What are your experiences being on disability Income? Do you supplement your time with hobbies, volunteering, etc?
