Autism/Depression

SO annoyed, went to collect my sertaline antidepressants today along with my inhaler. Only my inhaler was issued, went to the doctors they said my prescription was closed on 2nd Jan. I had no notice I told them. I'm out of them, have to have a review with the pharmacy next Wednesday. Ordered them Monday, takes days to get them. So I be out without them .not good

Oh what a pain @Andi66 could you call the GP back and ask for an emergency prescription? I know they often do those for a few days worth of meds.

Albus or Poppy can you advise what is written in the daily mail and telegraph about reeves wanting to cut billions from welfare mainly pip , my anxiety is in overdrive. I am scared. Made me cry.

Try not to worry adi66 I'm understanding more through scope that alot of these are clickbait even this morning I was feeling the anxiety big time it's all designed to keep people in a fear based mode and all the clicks they get makes them money it's very very cruel it's speculation I can see why we all feel down trodden scared and what helps me get through is noting is passed just like that all the channels it has to go through get great comfort from that as alot of people gave great advice nightcity Ark and dwp being investigated by ECHR and ellen clifford so we will have some Outlook on thier findings that's not good for DWP do deep breathing exercises and say I'm not engaging with this because the anxiety is horrific I had this am felt like kick to stomach I had to get up and move and distract myself hard but sitting in anxiety is horrendous hope you have a peaceful day

good morning everyone good news migraine has gone

It's been over 2 years since both parties started this. Its not good enough. They pick on the vunerable for their own failings. Where's Timms in all this, ? No wonder people's mental health has got worse. Its them doing this. Why can't they leave us alone. Also UC shouldn't be for disabled, we lose our disability premium. The extra gets whittled down to zero eventually.

Try not to worry. It is just speculation. There is Legislation they would have to go through first. It cannot just happen.

It's freezing here I always think of homeless how can anyone survive sleeping in this cold so heartbreaking wish had the power to change the world for us all and the elderly no one's talking about elderly have weeks of uproar then silence it's really turned into dog estate dog world so so depressed today 💔

Bluebell21

Hello @Catherine21 It is very upsetting to think of the homeless and people who cannot afford to put their heating on when it is so cold. I hope you are managing to keep warm. Take care.

Finally got my antidepressants come through. Been going through **** not taking them. Heads been all over the place. Made my tinnitus worse which was another side effect. Going to go on a higher dose next week. I think all this worry about benefits cut not helping . Plus my daughter been saying I'm tapped, stupid etc. She's asd and bpd . Hurts a lot, try not to show it. Doctors going to get in touch 3 weeks due to my not great thoughts. I think after new year it gets depressing. So occupied with Christmas. That its difficult. I just wise this uncertainty of benefits, eventually migration to uc is not good on my mind at present
