Can I work without affecting my Social Security Disability case?

social security disability

I have recently filed for disability through social security because of a brain injury i sustained as a child. i tried filing before but got denied because my parents made too much money. Now that I don’t live with them and live with a roommate I have applied again using a lawyer. I was told the case could take up to 2 years. I cannot go 2 years with no income. Is it possible to work 20-25 hours at $7.25/ hr as a night time janitor without it affecting my case?? This is type of work I feel I can do because I suffer from severe anxiety, ADD, depression, and an inability to work with others as a team. This part time night job working by myself will help get me by and get me some type of health insurance, beacuse I dont have any at the moment and need medication, until my case is determined.
