    I don't want a relapse of my illness .
    From what I've seen at the jobcentre its quite shocking...people who are clearly sick and some weigh severe mobility problems being hauled into the job centre so I hope the assessors will let me fully recover before I'm found fit to work.

    Its also shocking to find out the DWP sanction ESA claimants ...unberlieveable!
