Is there any hope for an unskilled 35 year old who was a wagie but ended up on disability from a brain injury?

I feel I recovered enough and can maybe go back to work, but the job market is fucked. I got friends who can't even get a job at McDonald's or Walmart.

I wanted to do a trade but I get random muscle jerks and am a bit jittery from my brain injury, I dunno if there's any trade I can do like that? The jerks are minor and fairly rare, like maybe a handful of times a week.

A desk job would be ideal but that's probably a lost cause based on my age and experience.

I don't like being on disability, it's nearly impossible to afford to live. I just wanna make 50k+ and live like a normal human.

I got no cognitive issues(anymore) besides the fact I am a bit jumpy.

Resell shit on ebay. Start a lawncare business.

Get a rad tech cert at community college. Low barrier to entry. Decent pay. Lot of growth anticipated in that sector. Recession/AI proof (unlike most desk jobs).
Your condition shouldn't be too prohibitive--the position does require a degree of precision and long hours on your feet, so if that sounds taxing maybe consider a more solitary trade.
look into pressure washing for instance. Easy to start up, high earning potential.

In general, i'd say avoid desk work. Boondoggle office jobs are going to get gutted hard in the next decade.
