I got diagnosed with a chronic illness during my junior year of my CS degree. I lost my internship and barely scraped by the rest of college. It's over a year out from my graduation, and I haven't even tried to get a job. My lack of experience and my difficulties managing my illness make it feel impossible to get a job. I keep telling my parents I'll figure something out, but really I've grown to despise programming altogether. I just plan to live off of them indefinitely. I am a neet.
Have you looked into getting disability benefits?

I would have to prove that my disability prevents me from finding work. I don't think I could get proper documentation for it since I'm not completely disabled. Not a bad idea, but I don't think it's viable in my case.

The Shit Tier stuff is way more interesting. Science is for nerds. Money is overrated anyway.
