    I've been told i can't work anymore. I used to be an accountant but can't remember how to do anything can I relearn? I have enrolled on a course but can't do it and the company won't listen to neither me nor my MS Nurse/Clinical Psychologist. I got both of these pieces of news in one week and it's really upset/destroyed my self-worth etc and now that e-careers won't assist me with refunding any of the course cost (ovet £600) despite me having done none of it I am really struggling mentally so I suppose I was hoping for some happy/good news.

    Welcome to the community @Rebecca2501!

    Oh I'm so sorry to hear this, that must have been difficult to hear. Is there anybody at the course organisation you could escalate a complaint to?

    They won’t tell me anything. I’m going to contact Citizens Advice x

    That sounds like a good idea @Rebecca2501, I really hope something comes of it. Please do keep us updated.

    Hello @Rebecca2501 Thank you for talking about this regarding puzzles.

    I believe it is working for me. Do word searches plus word  games associated stuff.

    Please take care.
