It’s impossible to be mentally ill and survive

I'm 23 and all the childhood abuse and mental problems my parents told me to shove down and ignore have finally ruined my life to the point I can't stand to be outside or around strangers anymore. I quit my last job what seems like forever ago and have lost 55lbs because when I asked disability how many hours I was allowed to work they told me I shouldn't because it would look bad on my application. I got rejected and filed for an appeal April 10th and still haven't heard back. If I get another job I know I'm gonna burst into tears or explode like always I can't take it anymore I just want therapy and medicine that will help me feel like a normal person for probably the first time in my life. How is that too much to ask?
