    They are really helpful they had help me but we had to go on the next step the energy company was being stubborn and not doing anything so I had to go to ombudsman but that can take up to 3 mouth to deal with but even then the problem I got I don't think they get sorted but scopes energy advisors are really really good of recommend them to anybody who disabled all got disabled kids

    @Strawberry1 My daughter and my mom swear by theirs but I do remember back when they wasn't that safe. They have come along way. The hinge on my bedroom door is broken so I can't keep the heat in. This seemed like a good alternative

    No matter what all of us are up to - either today or generally, I somehow feel like there is wisdom in what you say 'I will get there eventually,' @Strawberry1 I am trying to stick to that :)

    What do you think, @Eveie_Wonder and @madchris55

  • Eveie_Wonder

    I think you and @Strawberry1 are bang on @SmellyBin

    Lots of times I don't think I can do things but I need to remember slow and steady will eventually get there 😊

    Yeah, that sort of things can be really hard, right? Not knowing if it's gonna work out, because sometimes it doesn't.

    For me today it was a struggle to find myself a bit, the right mindset, you know? To allow the turmoil, but not losing myself in it.

    This forum helps me to remind that I am not the only one with issues, how can we be ill without difficulties in the first place. We don't have to pretend and only share the happy things, because the human stuff is important too.
