    You're making a complete mockery of those of us who do live with a real mental health illness :(
    I'm sorry, but you must be on a wind up.

    Just leave me alone. Twenty eight flippin years of this and you tell me it isn't real????????????????????????????????????????????

    I feel at odds with this as I paid for my parent council home. But they worked and paid for that in rent (just didn't have the confidence to mortgage).

    But they worked and paid all their lives and I get zero from it - bar a perhaps natural inheritance with my siblings.

    I'm not about to attack you for it, princessdon! I am though concerned both by the general situation -- even though the government alleges RTB houses will be replaced -- and by cases like the OP's.
