I know I wanna get a degree in something. I am looking to make a minimum of 70k in job.
But I am terrible at math, computers and anything scientific. So I can't do things in finance, computers or medical field.
Social work is too intense/emotionally draining so thats not an option either.
So I'm stuck and I have no idea which direction to turn. I feel like there is no job out there for me.
Any suggestions would be so much appreciated!

How do you know you are terrible at math and computers? When was the last time you tried?
I'm not saying there are no other options, but often, when people feel stuck in math or science, they are able to get past it and do well.

I failed the math and science subjects miserably in both middle and high school. I had multiple tutors in different years and even that did not help.
When I entered college- it was the same thing.
So I know for sure that they are my weak subjects

Following, I have the same limitations and I have no creative talents. I've been a SAHM, not because I love it but because I have no clue what to even work as.

Have you ever taken any aptitude tests? It helps to determine your natural strengths which points at where you can invest yourself.
There also career choice books that may be helpful.
On a general level, what about
Dental Assistant
Marketing Manager
Copywriter
Technical Writer
Editor
Liaison
Medicaid Pending Specialist
Office Manager
Makeup/hair

A paralegal can make that much and no math or numbers.

My son's bcba makes more than that. She works school hours with some flexibility and does reports and phone calls in the evening.

I think all jobs require use of a computer these days. It might be worth doing some courses - even watching videos online - to boost your confidence in the basics.

I can do a job that requires the use of computers- I just can't do a job that IS computers (such as programming, cybersecurity, IT)

No college and pays well
