Hello there @Menieres7 and welcome to the community, thanks for taking the time to reach out. I can imagine it must be quite an overwhelming feeling, and hopefully we can help support you.
Scope's website had advice and information on ill health retirement, including having enough money and looking after your wellbeing, which you might find helpful to read.
What's worrying you the most, perhaps we can help?
