If you have a mental illness or disability, there are tons of studies out there that will pay you for participating. Even if you don't have either of these things, they often recruit neurotypical people as a basis to go off of. Its usually just a survey or something short and you can make easy money.

Not everyone with mental issues would want to participate in a study I would assume ..

OP is giving a suggestion as a means to make some money, not saying that those with mental illness NEED to do do them.

Usually local hospitals or universities have some information on their websites.

I actually just made $150 by answering a few questions on the phone about feeding my newborn. I live near school/research hospital. BUT I can see how people would be weary of things like this. Tuskegee studies for example etc.

If you have an expensive medical condition, you might consider the free health care of a study that includes travel pay. See ClinicalTrials.gov for those.

Or, if you're healthy, you can be a healthy human subject for medical research studies, like me. I'm spending the month of October at a medical clinic so they can test a minute amount of a new drug on me intended to help hypoparathyroidism. In exchange, I'll collect, $15,075. I've already received half of that. If you're interested, it's worth traveling to other states to do them. Many are paying over $10k currently. You can see them on the website StudyScavenger.com or JALR.Org, which stands for Just Another Lab Rat.

Canada has some also:

Do you mean medication trials or answering questions?
