i wanted to start some part time study at the local college to keep my mind working and give me something to work towards but then i was scared of taking a course on incase it gets in the way of working times if the DWP do call me.
feel a little lost tonight, hope you don't mind me having a share with you all.
Hi.
Hope you are feeling a little brighter today, lovey.
It is really awful what we are going through, and I still don't know what the believe. I think its brilliant that people on here have been getting 'the call' and does give a glimmer of hope for the rest of us.
I only received my successful letter early September for West Yorkshire, so dare say I will still have a fair wait. When I do get through to Newcastle, they just say they are still dealing with the checks.
Anyway, start a new job on Monday just to put me on for a bit, cos its driving me mad at home, and I think the longer I am out of work the harder it will be for me to find something.
Take care, and let us know if you get any further info.

i got through it all by giving myself a routine. i still get up as if i was going to work. i never put tv during day cos i was determined i was not going to get into routine of watching daytime tv. i always go for a walk every day to get some fresh air. just keep positive. know its hard cos i had my bad days. we all here for you xxxx0 -
