Put down a deposit for a puppy and am having major reservations

I've always wanted a dog for as long as I can remember. I found the perfect pup nearby and put down a deposit. However now I am having major major reservations. I am absolutely terrified that this is a bad decision and that I am not in a good enough place in my life for a dog.

I'm fine with raising puppies as I have helped raised two puppies with my ex's. I love dogs and I know I would be a good dog mom

However I am scared my situation isn't stable enough for a pup. I'm a single person renting in a roommate situation. I work for myself and my income is okay but it's not great. I don't really have much support in terms of family. I have a disability too and I'm always worried one day I might not be able to work.

I know a dog would improve my life in so many ways, but I'm scared that it's too much responsibility for me as a single person with a modest income. The puppy will be ready in three weeks so I have some time to decide, but I'm already such an anxious mess I don't know what to do. If I had a boyfriend to share responsibilities with I would be fine, but right now I'm freaking out that this is a bad decision. I am so terrified of getting the dog and then realizing it was more responsibility than I can deal with.
