You should honestly consider living with your mom or your dad. You've mentioned they would welcome you, but you would feel suffocated if you had to move back home.
This may be one time to swallow your pride. Your mom loves you and doesn't want you to hurt yourself over your dire circumstances. You've said she is helping you financially.
Give her a chance to give you the support you need while you regain your footing.
She would want you to be yourself, and you could find a modicum of independence while you are on disability. Lots of young people your age live at home because they cannot afford to live elsewhere. It is not a stigma in this day and age to have that living arrangement. It's actually an advantage to those who are able to.
If not your mom, consider your dad or other relative who would have room for you to live in their home.
Subsidized housing is another option. That would save you money on your rent and make living on SSDI more sustainable.
