I’m trying to apply for housing and if asked me:
Do you or a member of your household have a long-term illness or disability which is caused or aggravated by where you live now? *
Because I have a severe anxiety disorder that affects my communication etc, would living with someone who makes my anxiety worse be a good reason?

Hi @duucjeiric and welcome to the community☺️
Yes that can be a valid reason. If your severe anxiety disorder is aggravated by your current living situation, especially due to living with someone who worsens your condition then it counts because your health being negatively affected by where you live.0
