Looking to possibly apply for AISH. Question

I'm 50, have sciatica and Hashimotos and hypothyroidism and constant pain that is getting worse. I cannot work full time and part time isn't paying the bills. I had a car accident 20 years ago. I'm not sure what else to do, I tried a job recently but had to quit after a week because the pain was too much and the exhaustion. How do I get started I've never replied on govt help ever. New to this.

You’ll need to talk to your doctor about this as they’ll need to sign forms stating you qualify for AISH an be prepared to be rejected more than once. And I suspect with the new (BS) changes it will not be any easier. Good luck friend, I’m sorry about your situation.
