Hi, a little nervous coming on here and just introducing myself. I’m older than 40 but younger than 50 lol and these past 4 yrs my life has been changing. Born with spina bifida, allergies,crohns,endometriosis,fibromyalgia,degenerative disc disease, osteoarthritis and more. June last year my spinal problems became much worse and I now need to use a wheelchair. I have been on long term sick leave and need to come to terms that I won’t be able to return and will need to rely on benefits for a while. Which scares me as I’ve never done it before.
Any advice would be gratefully welcomed
