It's horryfiyng but for other reasons. I'm actually on disability and like every other single person on disability in Italy (sure it's better in other countries) I'm fortunate to have a family (as to not have to rely on the meager check) or else I'd be on the street or worse. Life on here costs about ~800€ a month but they expect (?) people with disability to live with 300/500 a month (the average disability pension) the only person I knew who received more than that (not even that more, barely 800€) was a lady that was literally a vegetable and her cares costed many multiples of 800€, at least the cool thing is that you can receive these brownie points and keep working. Can't comment on other European nations as they're all different in som ways.

Edit: oh also when you turn 18 the gov agency in charge of disabilities and pension does whatever is it in its power to strip you of your meager check🙄
