do you think i might qualify for disability?

i struggle at keeping jobs. not because i get fired, i have NEVER been fired. but i always quit. i get extremely overwhelmed very easily and it gives me such high levels of anxiety when working with groups of people. and in my jobs where there isn’t “groups” of people, i still get overwhelmed and anxious. for example, babysitting is so stressful and i find myself crying at least 3 times a week if i work for 5 days. another example, i worked at kohl’s once, and all i did was organize clothes and hang them up. that’s it!!!! and i still found myself wishing something would happen to me so i wouldn’t have to work anymore because of the stress i was experiencing. (i would rather break an arm than be working with the public)

it’s simple things that exhaust me all the time. which again, overwhelms me.

i take medication for depression, anxiety, and mood disorders. all together i am on just 4 medications.

my counselor is pretty positive i have borderline personality disorder, but she can’t technically diagnose i think, i’m not really sure.

so my question is, does anyone think i could qualify for disability benefits ? i live on my own and right now my guardians (foster group home) pay for my housing so i don’t have to work. but starting in June they will “let me go” so to speak.
