>Go the stem way. It doesn’t have to be rocket science, but college level stuff is a lot less time/location bound (and a lot more disability friendly, if one can call insomnia a disability idk).
This is what I've seriously been considering for the past couple years. Although it would cost money and be a bit risky with no employment guarantee, I feel like my best bet would be to go back to college or university to get an engineering degree. It really has been 8 years since I was 17, and none of my other ideas have worked out. (I'm 25 now.) I'm fairly confident I could get a STEM degree. I would just be worried about missing lab days. If I miss a lecture, I could mostly make it up through watching videos, reading the textbook, ChatGPT, which wasn't a thing back when I was in my late teens, and occasional tutoring if ChatGPT doesn't work out. I do have disability status due to OCD, so I would be able to take tests and quizzes whenever I want and get extra time.
