in Start here and say hello

Hello, I'm new! I'm 34, female, and I have a hearing impairment, mental health problems and stomach problems that haven't been diagnosed yet, but might be IBS.

Also, my benefits are up for review, so I have that going on as well. :(

But anyway, hello!

    Hi and welcome @pyjamaviking, it's great to have you here!😊

    It sounds like you’re juggling a lot right now, I know benefit reviews can be stressful, especially when you have other things going on too. Feel free to share more about yourself or take your time looking around, whatever feels right for you.

    Thank you!

    I do have a lot on my plate at the moment. Hopefully the review will be off my back soon though. It's on Tuesday.

    I'm recovering from an episode of psychosis and I also have post-psychosis depression, and anxiety.

    I'm not sure how much to share and how much is overshare.

    Hello again @pyjamaviking. Only share as much as you're comfortable with and we always recommend avoiding sharing any details that might identify you.

    Thank you for the advice. :)

    Yeah, I love reading, writing and gaming. And for exercise I like walking my dog. :) How about you?
