because i deserve SSI

It is my social security as much as it is yours!

I am essentially taking my money out early, because the usa does not give a s**t about long term economic policies.

I am unable to even go to a job interview my anxiety is so bad!

Curious to feel such a sense of entitlement to a program to which you have never personally made any contribution. You can't take out money "early" that you never put in to the begin with. Find ways to deal with or treat the anxiety so you can pursue your life instead of expecting others to cater to your need and whim.

That is the point of Social Security, some are disabled to start with, and if you have ever worked and paid in anything, and become disabled, you are in for Social Security, not SSI.

It pays better, and has a higher asset, income cap. It was something like under 24 or 26, and you qualify.

Still, expect it to take a few years and an appeal or two.

Go read the law online, from what you say, Social Security is for you.

You will have to supply medical documentation that your condition is untreatable, will last for more than a year, and they will want you to see their doctors.

All cases seem to be rejected to start with, appeals are needed. Expect it to take time.
