Hi @traceye
Though I understand that you want to work, you also say you are unable to work and your medication makes you tired and sleepy all day, so you are in a really difficult situation.
You could look at ESA benefits as well as PIP, try the benefits calculator and you could also speak to our Support to Work team.0
