    Oh Pooky...my sister has just reminded me. NEVER let your OH put his gloves on before he goes down the stairs and holds onto the rail. My sister did it when she was younger. She flew down the stairs....twas very very funny at the time...

    I'm a freak.

    Always have been, always will be.

    Ames, I do the forms myself as I can't tell anyone else what's in my head, they'd get it confused or not understand. I have to do it, I tried to write stuff, but now all I think is I'm a freak. Cos it's true, normal people don't hear voices or have hallucinations or know there's camera and people watching their every move and that they can't go out to new places or go alone cos what if they find me and then I'll have nowhere to go hide.


    I hear what you are saying.
    But I do fill in different types of disability forms.
    I have been trained in how to complete forms for people both with physical & mental health problems.
    I have heard it all before & I am very very rarely shocked or surprised.
    I know how hard it is to fill in or have forms filled in because you are concentrating on your difficulties and all the things that are not right in your life.that is true in varying degrees for everyone who completes a form.
    For you to get the best possible outcome you need to give as much information as possable.
    I wish you well.
    If you need help feel free to PM.
