Benefit Hate

Hello

I am just wondering if people on here have seen an increase in hate against those who claim disability benefits and PIP? I see it popping up all the time on tiktok and facebook in particular.

For those on benefits how do you cope with this, for me i feel extremely guilty that i am in the situation i am in.

How do you cope with this negativity?

  • I try not to read it. Sometimes it can be unavoidable though.

    I went to the library a couple of months ago to look at all the local papers to see if there were any jobs. Of course there was not a single job in any of them. But one of them had plenty of comments from people whinging about benefit claimants. I decided I'm not going to bother buying that paper any more.
