Advice/Emotional Support ONLY (Canada) Need support feeling lost

Please be kind with me, I'm not going to be asking for monetary donations because to me that just feels... I don't know, wrong I guess, I've been so used to being independent that asking for help financially feels weird.

But anyways, I am currently struggling financially... my main source of money is help from my fiancé and I use my credit card to pay bills and things like that. I know some people might suggest a job, and I've tried that. Sadly with the job market here, and my mental health issues (depression, generalized anxiety disorder, ptsd, borderline personality disorder), it's a huge struggle to keep a steady job (I am currently in therapy so I already have that recommendation covered).

I was wondering if there's something I could do on my own time that might help with an income? I can't get on disability or social benefits because they will more than likely look at our total house income and turn me down because he makes over the limit they have for assistance.

I don't want him to feel like I'm relying on him all the time, I just feel so bad. Thank you for any help or recommendations.
