Finally, success

Hi guys,
so for a change i can finally post some good news...i am literally ecstatic...(after hours of crying at the welfare office)

Victory one
i had to see the welfare officer today re housing and money, i was initially claiming for jobseekers allowance but they've said to me without coercion from me that im too poorly to work with all of my conditions, med changes and my general state of mood at present (the officer even said 'i dont have to be a psychiatrist to see how hard you are struggling)

victory two
Dex is working really well (after a doubtful day with it yday) i feel calmer than i ever have in my life, i can hold conversation face to face longer than i have ever been able to and i seem to be having less of my frustrated hissy fits when im supposed to be being patient over things...i also dont seem t be getting palpitations

victory three

the welfare officer referred us to the city council, i was ready to be rejected and turned away but when they learnt of all my struggles, being homeless, illness and adhd etc dad making me homeless to move in his new wife and make an office for her etc in 2009 and my lack of support and treatment etc they have offered to permanently house me with lots of support and i can even keep my little pets with me.

...this is the first few steps in getting me where i need to be as an independent adult..i can look at doing little courses and building up m experience bit by bit until im ready to return to full time work..

for the first time ever i have to say...thank goodness for these understanding people that run my local authority

Re: Finally, success

I am so happy for you to see you finally getting back on your two feet again w some help.Glad to see Englands system isnt as backwards and idiotic as the stateside system is.Yes they make you jump thru hoops and give ya the royal run around w no answers to get nowhere w lots of stress and added mental health strain here lots of the time it seems.
