    ?It could be better
    Glad to hear it, mrbuttons.

    I had my ESA health assessment today. I think it went well - it only took half an hour and the assessor was pleasant and sympathetic towards my conditions. That said, the PIP assessor was nice enough too and my PIP ended up being cut, I think unfairly, so I will have to see what happens to my ESA. I’m just glad it’s finished now though and that I had an understanding and friendly assessor.

    That's understandable that you've been nervous @66Mustang! I really hope it is a positive outcome. :)

    Sounds like you needed the rest @mrbuttons! I hope you are okay today.

    Im trying to be aware of my feelings to be on guard of slipping into a depression which i am prone to do this time of year.
    still waiting for the outcome of my f2f and trying not to think about it.

    Hello @mrbuttons   Sorry to hear that, anything I can say give you a lot of reassurance and confidence.

    Some positivity.

    Please may I just add I have been though a lot of these  and just let you know.

    Try to think of something to make you relax and deal with any stress.

    Anxiety and depression never easy to cope. I just know it is something to keep reminding yourself what if.

    My floating support told this if you continue in your mind to be troubled or plagued by negative feelings and emotions.

    These effect the body, mental state end up not eating or sleeping.

    Try to do some meditation or relaxation techniques.

    I am always here anytime you need to talk.

    Happy to be supportive, have compassion and empathy so I have been through many of the stresses your finding it hard to cope with.

    Please keep safe and warm.

    Please take care

    Me too @mrbuttons
    I can also feel a bit of a downward slide at this time of year. 

    I sometimes wonder if I have that SAD but I'm determined not to add that to my list of illnesses!

    Hope you will be ok and also that you receive the decision soon.

    Relaxed
    Had a stand in carer today as my usual lady has flu. I was very worried about having a new lady but i didnt need to. She was lovely! We prepared a chilli con carne for the slow cooker which i turned on after she left and it was delicious. Perfect comfort food.in bed now binge watching fringe on amazon. Feeling good type of sleepy for a change. :smile:
