    @Schildpad I'm not sure what you put on your details but if you go on the payment on your journal you can get the full breakdown. So mine shows an amount for my rent, which is deducted for me as I asked them to pay my landlord (council) instead of me having to do it. It shows the amount I will get from UC. It shows an amount deducted for ESA Sg, who still pay me the disability premium which for me is £280 every 2 weeks, as I wanted them to carry on paying me fortnightly rather than monthly. It shows an amount called the transitional protection ( this amount can go down when your rent goes up, eventually we will lose this over time) it shows whether you have savings, im not sure if there is up to a certain amount your allowed, as I didn't have any. It shows a deduction if you have had a loan from them. It will then show you the final amount you will get after all these amounts are added or taken off. This amount will be paid the same time every month as its done like a salary.

    @Elvisdog i checked on payments… and yes it does show the esa apart that i hope i will get paid.. i do not understand why deducted money because i have more money in my account.. if i deduct the money i have minus the money ESA payment because the owed me. it is well below the 6000 . so why did the deduct it. i did tell the person i saw in the job centre that money was from ESA mainly . i got an standing order for my rent. anyway. i might have to write a note in my uc journal and check why did they deduct it.

    @Catherine21 thanks i Will be keeping and eye in the bank app etc.. I hate the idea of calling them..so I hope they will find out it was their money. Maybe if I write a note on the UC journal so they might be able to do something.

    I am just scared. And calling and making these phonecalls give me tremendous anxiety. So I don't want to call unless strictly necessary.

    @Ranald I am always procrastinating as well. I see so many scenarios almost all of them bad and keep imaging what if.... Tomorrow will be another day .. maybe tomorrow will be better....

    Good evening.

    Its been a beautiful sunny day here but I was too fatigued to go out and enjoy it.

    Maybe I will be able to get out for some fresh air tomorrow.

    Has anyone heard anything from Sandy?

    Its a beautiful day here and I'm hoping to go out later.

    Its going to be a horrendous weekend as we have the usual holiday makers and we are expecting 25,000 extra people here attending the Boardmasters festival.

    Good morning all!

    It's very sunny here today but not too hot which is lovely after a bit of a grey and raining weekend.

    That's nice to hear @durhamjaide2001, glad you're feeling better!

    Wow that sounds intense @luvpink! Hope it goes quick for you and they don't cause too much disruption!

    i had a so so day. at times was ok but also i had been very jumpy. my anxiety is really bad. i went to the oriental shop and bought some food, noodles etc.. .. and now i a m at home. i am not sure what to do to be honest. i am always got that feeling of being scared and it does not stop. i am really tired of this… everyday is the same and the prospects for recovery very slim. i rather do not think about it. i hope you have a good evening… and night. i still did not have the courage to write down a message in my journal about that deduction. i probably ill try to do it tomorrow. but it is very hard for me to find the courage to do almost anything. it takes take and loads of willpower to do things, i just rather feel like being in bed with all blinds on. as dark as possible and stay there. rather bleak….. the future is.

    It was surprisingly and pleasantly quiet in town today despite the usual holiday makers and Boardmasters going on.

    I managed to have a good afternoon.
