    Sorry, and I'm making a detour too. I didn't start this thread to ramble and start a discussion, it was just a question. If I want to discuss more, I'll go and ramble in DT.

    Everyone here is very kind.

    Hang in there - by the way, you can work and claim DLA at the same time.
    DLA is a "non means" tested benefit so the amount you earn doesn't matter.
    The only time DLA worry about someone working is eg: if someone is claiming the benefit and working as a brickie, that might look a bit strange. On the other hand, you could have someone in a wheelchair doing office work which would be perfectly fine.
    Take care of yourself :).

    I hope you do get a little break away sorted or a regular activity that you can enjoy and feel good about.

    All the best x
