I think i want to earn money to gain experience but i also dont feel ready for a job?

I clearly dont want to get a job yet plus theirs nothing really near me, and i have year round allergy's.

Im just wondering what ways i should look into to earn money from home or online. ive tried survey sites but there the worst. I would get a job at McDonald but im unsure, and my parents are overprotective and worry.

Also is there a better place to post this at, or is here fine?

I'm in my 30s and I don't feel ready for a job. Work sucks, I'd rather chill at home all day and do whatever I want, but unfortunately I got bills to pay, I live alone and I like my little apartment. Also, I spent 2 months at home on medical leave last year and the toll it took on my mental health was incredible. As much as I hate working, I need something to get me up and out of my home and around other people (and I hate people).

I would seriously consider trying to get at least a part time job. Growth is painful, but you can't become a better person if you never push yourself forward and do the hard things.
