You get a job and if you already have one, you save up over time.

I make $2000-2400 a month, that’s something to be proud of, but with SSI denials and rent and other bills it’s just too hard. I’m already trying to save for a car. My rent is the freaking problem. All I can do is get a better job and move out but the (explicit) problem with that is that it’s hard to find a job and I do not want to move from a good area in LA to a worse area. There’s nowhere else I could move to.

$2400/month? That’s less than a month at minimum wage ($16.04) for 40 hours a week in LA.

This whole post sounds so entitled. How to do it? Grow up and face the reality that you can’t have it all. Work more hours, get a better job, move to somewhere with more opportunity for you.
