Hi all , need some advise , I am trying to bury my feelings but I don't know what to think . Been doing this since July now , but I've never been really sick before. .I hope I am not being silly here, but I am trying to get my head round things and not let my family see the cracks
Does anyone rely on anti depressant drugs , I have been on a low dose sertraline for years following domestic issues and they have helped, however since I got this cracks have been showing and my care team have advised me double my dosage and take a100mg.
Another stumbling block is money and benifits I get AA and my daughter who was getting UC postponed resuming her career and became my carer.., this meant £300 a month less income and then a near total sanction whilst investigated, the only advise was to visit a food bank , no good for me as I eat differently as I have stomach cancer, I am subsidising her out of my pension as her and her 5yo live with me.I just feel I am fighting on several fronts at the moment and losing ..
