Disability is something you get from Social Security. You have to have a permanent/ semi-permanent mental or physical disability that prevents you from working. You just walk into the Social Security office and apply. Then, they send you to a Doctor Who will examine you. If the doctor finds that you have a disability, then you will get a check each month. The whole process takes a few months. They review your case every couple of years.
