Basically, I put it off for way too long until I had a massive burnout. Last Feb, I took the plunge to sort out my undiagnosed ADHD. I expected a fight, but the GP 100% agreed and stated that what I was experiencing was intrusive and would probably need meds. So that's all true a year later down the line. So the burnout…

When I was in a local corner shop a couple of days ago, I expressed surprise that the son, a full time student was behind the counter still, what with his studies. He said his dad was back in Pakistan to sign paperwork and see to a few things, with regards to a house that the family has recently bought. I told him about…

Hi 👋

I was awarded PIP on 22nd July - enhanced across both Daily Living and Mobility - following a 2.5 hour telephone assessment on 16th July. I’d already requested and read the assessor’s PA4 report and so I had a good idea I might get it. I’m incredibly grateful and feel very lucky given the endless horror stories of people…
