Hi, my name is roxycola!
I may lurk in the background to begin with, but thank you for accepting me.

Heya @roxycola and welcome to the community.
So what brings you here today? If you need help with anything, please just ask away and we'll all do our best to support you.
Or if you just fancied a light hearted chat, or a few easy games, I'd recommend checking out the coffee lounge and the games den. But no rush, I hope you enjoy lurking for a while. 😊 -
Hi,
I'm a married lady in my early 60's. I have a real mixture of physical and psychological conditions.
I'm struggling to cope with my adult son's activities which led to my having to take him to court (he was found guilty). But I'm so angry with him.
Meanwhile, I'm panicking about the proposed changes to PIP, which makes up a significant proportion of our income (we are a mixed age couple, in receipt of full housing benefit and a small amount of Pension Credit).
To be completely honest, I don't know where to turn to. I'm exhausted. I've just come out of yet another bout of pneumonia. We are moving in a couple of weeks so that our son has no idea of where we live.
It all feels like too much.

What you've heard about PIP may not even happen. No one knows anything at the moment because they haven't announced anything.
