Tasks you struggle with on a day-to-day basis: I struggle to look after myself. Basic things like cooking food and washing myself are difficult and require prompting on my worst days. I struggle socially and rarely leave the house.
Expected income you will lose if the Green Paper cuts are imposed: I would lose £700 a month as it would also affect my eligibility for LCWRA. This would push me into poverty and stop me being able to afford basic necessities like food, clothing and energy costs.
Expected problems if you tried moving into work, with support from a work coach: During manic episodes I always end up being hospitalised. I have been trying to get part time work for over 6 months and have not been successful.
Anything else to tell us: This green paper has caused me extreme anxiety and has prompted suicidal thoughts.
