i was suppected of having bi-polar GP still thinks it but will not re-assess me yet to soon so they say, but one of my best mates has bi-polar and she is very all over the place , moods are like a yo-yo , up at all hours for days , its not a easy thing to cope with i no becsue as a friend its me phoned at 3am when she wants to cut herself etc , i get higher rate care on my depression alone, mental health issues arent easy plese stop the bashing it just makes things that bit harder0 -

yes if you have care or mobity needs
I'm just wondering how i could demonstrate any care/mobility needs if i manage to work full time?Feudal Britain needs land reform. 70% of the land is "owned" by 1 % of the population and at least 50% is unregistered (inherited by landed gentry). Thats why your slave box costs so much..0 -

edit: not sure about the work element but i know it IS possible to claim whilst working0 -
you can work and receive dla! on my award letter it mentions nothing about my fluctuations but say sim aarded high rate care to prevent danger to myself and others around me,so it seems tht my writing varies makes no difference!0

Because many people can work full-time; but their disability means they may not be able to cook a meal or they need supervision outside.Sealed pot challenge #232. Gold stars from Sue-UU - :staradmin :staradmin £75.29 banked
