No. You should make application to the court to reduce alimony.

You should apply to the court to reduce the alimony if you are now on disability. Contact my office for free consultation 727-446-7659

It will depend on what your court order states. Although you have two answers that I don't quite agree with, I would state that you need to file immediately for reduction of Alimony. It will help with offsetting the amount you must pay but I would guess you will still have to pay something.
