My UCD35 has arrived

I’m disappointed. I’m very unlikely to be found fit for work but my concern is being moved from LCWRA to LCW. My rent shortfall is £350 a month and without the LCWRA money I will be homeless in a matter of weeks.

Oh no , so sorry you’ve received this to stilllrise. The stress this causes is unbelievable and you also have the your home/rent issue to deal with. So it seems they either didn’t contact our GPs or they did and our GPs were useless or DWP just ignored them.
The thought of having to fill in this form then have an assessment makes me feel sick.

I'm literally sitting here shaking with fear as I type this. This uncertainty combined with having no idea of the outcome of my PIP review either is sending me over the edge and I have started contemplating suicide. Life just shouldn't be this hard. I've honestly done my best -- never ever missing a therapy appointment, working my butt off to try to get better, to attend therapy, attend all their psychiatric assessments, pay my enormous rent shortfall even when it means some days I can't even afford to eat. There's nothing more I can do.

Hopefully you will get a paper-based assessment? That is what I am hoping for as well. Before UC I was on ESA in the Support Group. They put me in the ESA Support Group in 2013 and then I didn't hear from them again until 2019, at which point they sent me a ESA50 to fill out and then did a paper-based assessment in the end.

Can you contact your MH team and tell them this is all too much to deal with ?

I already spoke to my MH team last week before I knew about this UC50 stuff and told them I was really struggling and am suicidal. Their "solution" is to book me in for a psychiatric review appointment on 24th July. How is an appointment in over a month's time helpful to someone who has severe mental health problems and is suicidal?
