    I'd be working in the garden if I didn't have a pile of ironing and housework to tackle.

    Another day. At home. Picked an Amazon parcel and now at home.. I will stay at home. Tomorrow I have to go somewhere part of my routine and social interactions but feel rather stressed. I hope I will feel a bit better tomorrow...

    Hi all

    I've only just managed to crawl out of my bed.

    I had such a brilliant day watching the rugby yesterday.

    I had a right skin full. 😅

    Off out later to see a live Irish band.

    Thank you everyone for your kind comments. Im taking the antiviral medication, they are 5 a day with intervals between each, trouble is my memory isn't that good lol.

    I hope everyone is having a good restful Sunday.

    A news piece in the guardian made me sleep easier. It's looking very much like Starma, is going to have a struggle with alot of his own cabinet ministers and the Lords. Fingers crossed for a u-turn on this green paper, he has chosen to fight the elderly, and people with physical and mental health disabilities. He is in for a fight.

    I'm okay today thanks Catherine , still very fearful and reflective, apparently a new idea that Kendall is coming up with is try work -which means if you don't like work , you go back to your benefit , no sanctions etc, mmmmm , not liking that idea one bit , I suffer with anxiety and stress and after what happened to me , I can't be in a room with just one person ,plus , they will have to have the patience of a saint , I mess myself 8-9 times a day , plus I have bulimia, they will hardly see me for the amount of toilet breaks I will need , I've never seen so much strength of feeling over this, and rightfully so

    How are you doing ?

    Good to hear from you, and I’m glad the meds are helping. Hope the memory side effects gradually ease.

    As you pointed out, Starmer is in for a challenge like never before, especially from the most vulnerable in our communities.

    Best wishes!

    I honestly love your attitude towards it all Catherine, its admirable , I wish I could be as strong as you , I'm waiting for a reference from Survivors UK to see a Councillor and hopefully it might help , but as you know 6 sessions of seeing someone doesn't sort out decades of issues , you're definitely one of the good people and I understand your comments :) hopefully , I'll get a few people on board with me as well, you've been lovely xxx

    Good morning all

    I was up several times in the night

    Morning .. I am feeling really anxious. I should not read the papers but I can't help it. It looks like unless this government is toppled... I am not sure . They will force people to work regardless. I hope all is scaremongering and nothing else.... But I am scared. Why don't they reduce their exorbitant salaries and leave the sick alone..

    Morning folks. Sorry to hear people are struggling with the upcoming news, I know it's not easy.

    We do have a discussion here for everyone to join in with. I think it's best we keep any talk of potential benefit changes there, so people who don't want to read about it have safe spaces to talk about other things. I hope that's ok?

    But please know we are doing our best and once the information is out, we'll give a statement.
