I'm sorry to hear about your situation, sadly I think this is the future for many younger individuals. A few years ago I started a side gig which I do at the same time I do my full time job. It's been steadily growing year over year and I'm finally starting to feel like I can breathe.
But that's the hard part, isn't it? The idea. I don't know what you do for work, but is it possible you can do two jobs at once? Or some kind of online work after hours? I'm trying to remember what I know one person does, but it's like they have to go online and validate certain data for websites or something. They get a set amount of hours they need to work and it's flexible so it can be done like any time, even off their phone if I reall correctly. And apparently it didn't pay too badly either.
Dog walking is a thing too. Sorry I have shit ideas, I'm not very creative either.
