    OOh I'm so so sorry and I totally understand how you feel reaching out amd expressing your feelings is good it's so hard to advice without feeling your patronising but honestly everything your saying I have felt and lived two divorces a life of ups and downs I used to hate myself so much and yearned to be accepted by family friends it changed for me when I did isolate myself some people may see that as sad but for me I was free of people and thier judgement no one is perfect and the people telling you that you don't want to change !! I'm 100 percent positive that they aren't perfect but easy targets because we feel so much inside everyday I used to say to myself your fat ugly and old useless constant constant crying howling and now I see I'm none of those things if you have to stay in bed that's OK don't use it as something to hurt yourself with if you can sounds hard now but everyday or one a week to start with say something good about yourself could be made cup of tea washed up everything is an achievement when you feel so low my go to place is the bath I can have 5 a day to sooth myself you are not alone there are so many of us who feel your pain check in tomorrow and let us now how you are big hugs

    Ok guys had not been great lately. One thing yesterday I got a phonecall. No voice message. When checking on Google. It says DWP but also scams calls come from that same number. I decided not to answer as I do not reply calls I don't know the number.

    I am still in esa. So i don't know. My question is DWP leave messages or not. I am petrified about them.. will the send the UC form without calling. I am scared... Very scared.

    Morning all I hope yous have a good day.
    The weather has changed the rains back here today and a feels a good bit cooler.

    @Schildpad

    Hi I totally understand you worrying about the number calling you if it’s the DWP they will get back in touch.
    Regarding changing over ti UC I’m due to change over to I received a letter about a month ago saying I’ve to do it by a certain date, it gives you 3 months notice I received another reminder letter yesterday.
    I hope that puts your mind at ease a little.

    ❤️

    thank you all for your kind words 💚 I’ve kind of had another rough day and didn’t get up until 12 but then like an idiot I’ve ordered another two take aways 😔

    But I’ve had a word with myself after this, I’ve decided on Tuesday that I am going to ring up all my bill providers and cancel all direct debits, I am then going to physically make physical payments like I used to do on the days my benefits go in. That way it cuts down on the cash sitting in my bank and removes the temptation to spend it. This should remove the temptation to buy take aways or buy things off Amazon. Hopefully by doing this I can save up for the decorating, flooring, new furniture and tv in my flat. Alongside this it will also help me to buy bits and bobs over time for my holiday next year, alongside this I’m going to apply for a disabled rail card, I know that am stopping myself from living a good quality of life in many ways which is very harmful to my health both mentally and physically. I am going to start living life in the Buddhist Middle Way by eating a breakfast and dinner and then nothing after mid day, this should help my stomach to calm itself down. I want to lose another 3 stone over the next twelve months which should help take weight off the old joints. I’m just going to take things one day at a time, just listen to my mind and body each day. One big thing I have to do is practice living in the present moment and start getting back into practicing Buddhism.

    Morning everyone! Bit blustery outside today!

    Sorry you've had another rough day @Roughyed1485. One step at a time is a really good way to look at it. Hope today is a better day for you ☺️

    @Amberpearl, do you know where the mice are getting in? While I was a student we had some success filling holes with wire wool so they couldn't make it into the house. We had to keep our food in hard plastic containers or glass jars so it didn't get nibbled on.

    Nice to meet you @pyjamaviking, welcome to the community. Hope you're well today!

    Sorry you're having some tech issues @Katiedimelow20, hope you can find a solution soon!
