ESA medical on tuseday, and I have never been more scared

Its, I had to stop watching the news, talk of benefit reforms was a majour anxity trigger. I had to stop reading papers for same reason. I had to stop checking my emails, because on good days I;d sighn petitions, and on bad days I crumbed under a never ending cavalcade of woe.

I feel so useless, so pathethic, so utterly utterly hopeless. I can barely cope with my life now, and ESA is made by the tories to be demied not granted. Itry to sleep, cant, stress has eatenmy apetite. all I can see when I close my eyes is the horror stories of claims spitefully denied/ havent even begun to look into PIP. I want to cry but tears wont come to be sick but I;m not there either.

I;ve read al the links here, they helped with the forms but, all I can think of is how corrupt the assessors are, how fundng cus and turnover have cut me off from the local support.

I have my mother coming in with me but, I am so very scared.  dont even know why I wront this. venting, too late for anything else.

  • If you prefer you can almost insist your mother does all the talking by looking at her each time they ask you a question.  Just a tip. Take in a notebook and pen with you and write down anything you unsure about and don't be afraid to ask them what do they mean by.... If you don't know then say so.... dont try to make anything up and just be yourself. Take a pen and paper in with you and don't be afraid to use it when they ask you things.
