This varies from person to person and you don't say what disability it is or how severe. Is it so severe he needs a guardian or help and you so far have had that role you have to get help if you don't want to do that anymore or he could end up in real trouble and I don't think you want that. If he is capable of taking care of himself he is like any other adult. Many function on their own even when they have a disability.
