generally you don’t need a specific degree to do a job that requires a degree. Many people switch fields. I have a political science degree and have worked everything from an engineering job, consulting, tech, business, marketing.

if you have the mental capacity and fortitude to complete several degrees, you should be able to keep a job down. Seeking more training isn’t going to help with that. Not to knock your disability, but just framing it another light. If your disability is preventing you from keeping a job, it’s likely going to impact any additional training.

you have private loans, lucky for you they are dischargeable in bankruptcy if you really need to go down that path.

Well, my disability kind of affects my ability to work with people and follow directions. I guess it did affect me as a college student somewhat also, but for the most part, my professors wanted me to learn the material so made accommodations for me even when I didn't know I was disabled. I can take online classes with little issue, though. The computer screen hides whatever people read on me that they don't like, and being able to take a class whenever I feel like it, as opposed to having to stick to a set schedule, kind of helps me keep up with deadlines.

I wouldn't complain about it, but it's been a pretty salient factor in my ability to keep jobs, I think. I can't always read social cues like I'm expected to, and this had led to anger, disagreements, resentment, and suspensions. My bosses have questioned if I was on drugs, stealing from the company, or deliberately trying to get them in trouble. Some of it makes no sense to me, honestly. I feel like they're in the wrong for making decisions without having any facts to back it up. "Not a good fit for workplace culture," shouldn't be acceptable grounds to fire someone or suggest they quit, in my opinion.

Maybe these loans would have been good news if I wouldn't have gotten them through the U.S. government, but it was some kind of program where the government allows private loan companies to grant people student loans, and yes, since these are student loans, my understanding is they are not dischargeable in bankruptcy. I'm also pretty sure I refinanced most of them into Direct Department of Education loans, in an attempt to get them forgiven.
