Hi Everyone, I've joined in the hope I'll feel less alone - I am a disabled carer - I became sick with long COVID in 2020 - my son is life limited he has a rare degenerative brain condition which is linked to MnD - he's lost his mobility, he's got dementia, slow processing speed, he has absence seizures, narcolepsy he's losing his speech and his sight it will eventually take everything from him. I'm so so worried about what these cuts are going to mean for us and how we will cope. My mental health is at an all fine low

Anna. My name is David and i live in london. I just joined this site and I totally understand your situation. You aren't alone, I'd like to be friends with you. I'm 31 , live with my mother and Ive had aspergers for my whole life. It hasnt affected my social life, but since I broke up with my girlfriend , three years ago, I have not been going out or anything, I have anxiety and depression, and i take meds for both. I thought maybe we could help each other
