    Yes I do work, I work 27 hours aweek and any overtime I can get as this is all I could get. I was on the dole for about 16 months but I have paid in for the last 21 years.

    There you go again lol

    I can do all the above (not drive dut to meds) on a good day BUT those good days can be very few and far between. Find me a job where they will accept the fact that although one day I could do the job but then might not see me again for a few more weeks! My elderly parent comes and cares for me 3 times a week!

    You are proving that you have NO clue about depression and how it affects people not just on a daily basis but weekly, monthly.

    I'm not going to reply to you again as I find your ignorance of mental health problems offensive and upsetting.

    You still seem to skip the part about volunteer work???

    You seemed to skip the part where I asked you to explain how people can go from 0 points (fit for work) to getting a place in the support group after appeal.

    Even voluntary work requires some level of consistency

    At 3am this morning I woke to a massive anxiety attack, my oh trying to calm me while one of my grown up kids got my meds.

    This happens most days. How lucky you are to not suffer anxiety or depression.

    By the way I passed the ATOS assessment and was placed in the support group.

    Another fine example of your insulting posting style that you don't do.

    So you are saying nobody has ever dribbled into their pillow at night Am i making a genral obsvation or insulting Homer Simpson?

    You don't need to know the details (not that not knowing the details has prevented your "wisdom" in this thread). People are getting 0 points and then 15+ points on appeal. How? After all you said nil points means fit for work or do you deny saying that?
