Tasks you struggle with on a day-to-day basis: I struggle with all daily tasks. Every day. No good days.
Expected income you will lose if the Green Paper cuts are imposed: I’m not sure exactly how much. A lot. I won’t be magically cured so will still be unable to work. I won’t be able to pay for my carers, counsellor, physiotherapy, etc. I don’t know what will happen to me
Expected problems if you tried moving into work, with support from a work coach: I am in extreme pain 24/7. Nothing helps. I struggle to speak to people due to fatigue and anxiety. I can’t shower every day or wash my own hair. I can’t go out very often. Not even for enjoyable things. I am simply unable to work. I tried for as long as I could.
Anything else to tell us: My life already feels not worth living. There are no treatments available to help. The NHS has been stripped so I have to pay for private treatment. Not enough research is being done so no hope of a cure. I am here for my family, not myself.
