Hi I am Mill07 and I'm 38 yrs old. I have a meeting with a work coach tomorrow morning and I am panicked and worried about it. I suffer with Clinical Depression and severe Anxiety I cannot go anywhere without my mum and I also live at my mums. She cares for me to a degree as I had a stroke 2 yrs ago and it has left me with a condition called hemoplegia which is nerve damage and severe weakness all down my left side which I now have to use a walking stick fulltime. This causes me problems and discomfort on a daily basis and I don't go out at all only if I had to but even then I won't go alone. My mum attends every appointment with me. So with this meeting tomorrow I'm worried where I stand with my situation. If you could help advise would be gratefully received Thank you.

Hi @Mill07
Just go along to your appointment as asked.The work coach will explain everything you need to know.Everyones is different, apart from the standard questions such as Name,Address etc. If you have any questions just ask. They are not the easiest meetings to attend for some but are compulsory so don’t avoid it just explain your situation and they will advise you on how to proceed.Good luck.
