Hi all
Hope your well? 
I need assistance I've been advised by my 
Gp to temporary register with gp  in the area I'm in since lockdown. As I could not survive in my flat in London due to harassment. 
I'm concerned about my ESA if I do this. 
As I worried about Gp  in London mentioning this report. 
I do have a Sociolotor but she is not sympathetic 
Pls help I've really had enough of everything. 
It's very hard living with parents especially my mum.

    Hi 

    You should inform DWP of any change of address I know this is temp but it could affect your claim especially if you are living with people as opposed to single claim 

    Changing gp will not affect anything but again I would report it 

    Before you do anything I would get expert advice from CAB or welfare rights 

    I understand it can be difficult living with parents again but be grateful they are around and you have family support
