Please I need help I have no idea what I am doing.

Hello, I am 23F and my dad is 55.

Long story short: my dad is “disabled” and stopped working since I was 14 at least the doctor declared him as such.

I am trying to help him file for disability? Disability pay? Idk what it’s actually called (he’s never had it before) without having to pay someone or hire a lawyer (this will be our 3rd time)

His conditions (idk what qualifies):

• Morbidly obese
• type 2 Diabetes
• Neuropathy (hands and feet)
• chronic pain
• lymphedema
• heart and pituitary glad are 3x the size they are supposed to be
• Anxiety
• Depression
• Sleep apnea
• Insomnia
• half deaf (had three cholesteatomas in the same ear one bursted so everything in his left ear was removed when he was like 9 and had repeated surgeries for a year)

While you file for this is it for the state or federal? Also how do file this so it’s one and done I’m really tired of fighting this battle.

The reason we don’t wanna pay someone is cause I’m literally paying him and my mom every moth to have somewhere to live and food. I’m trying to move out and have my own life. Can’t do that while helping them and giving them all my money.

Any help would be great!

I have no idea what I’m doing and just some help and guidance would be really nice.

Thank you
