Should I stick it out for just one more month or quit?

So I’m a grocery store cashier, been at this job for 5 months. I feel like they have 0 respect for me.

First off they send us a weekly schedule and if they write me down for, say, 8am-6pm and they end up short staffed, they will straight up make me stay even until 8pm. They’ve done this before even when I was sick and they knew. Just 0 respect for my time, doesn’t matter if I have plans after work they won’t even ask me to stay those extra hours they’ll just not let me leave.
Second off they just casually schedule 12 hour shifts and call it standard and that’s fine and all but for a 12 hour shift we only get one 30 minute break and they don’t want you eating at the register so your break is your only time to eat- I’ve had days where I was set up to work 7am to 7pm and they sent me on break at literally 11am and just let me be hungry the rest of the day.
Again just total disregard for my human needs and agency. One of my shift managers also acts pretty mean to me, like if I come up to her at all she’ll get all mad and like “what do you want?”, will criticize me and give me a hard time for absolutely nothing etc.

Thing is I’m starting my volunteer year in a month and nobody else will hire me for just a month, so idk if I should quit now or stay until I start volunteering.

Can I apply for nimbus disability in this situation?

I plan on visiting the UK next month for the first time and I don’t have any disability plan in my country because I don’t encounter many scenarios where I may need to use it and it’s too much of a hassle to try to receive.
I really wanna visit theme parks in the UK but I have some diagnosed chronic orthopedic issues which make standing for prolonged periods of time painful and ADHD which can make me overstimulated standing for a long time in a queue in the heat with a lot of noise around me.
Can I apply for a nimbus disability access card specifically for the concert and theme park I will be attending if I don’t have any disability benefits in my own country? I just never bothered to apply for any, but since I’ll be on a trip where I will encounter multiple areas where accommodations will be needed, I was wondering if I can apply for nimbus disability even without having any in my own country?

Edit: just wanted to clarify I didn’t apply in my own country because I simply rarely go to theme parks or concerts. I’ll be spending a week in the UK though and I really wanna try things there.

Needing help with mental block

I just recently got over a huge mental block where I couldn’t do basically anything on the board, and I did get most of my skills back but I have this one thing that frustrates me to no end
Basically at my skatepark there’s 2 slopes that intersect, I can do one of them including the mini pump track that follows it, but I can’t do the one that’s identical to it but doesn’t have a pump track that follows.
First one I can do perfectly, but I can’t do the other one even though they’re identical..I just bail. I can’t help it no matter how hard I try to send it I keep bailing..
What can I do?
