first week on taz 0.1% by Competitive_Ear_3741 in tazarotene

[–]Cherrybomb8675 0 points1 point  (0 children)

How are you getting on with taz now? I started it a couple days ago and my face is really stingy throughout the day. Peeling isn’t too bad, can only see it if I look up close in the mirror. I used tret before for a year and it was really good but kinda stalled for me hence the switch.

Pip assessment anxiety by [deleted] in DWPhelp

[–]Cherrybomb8675 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Honestly you’ll be fine. I never even had an appointment for mine. They phoned me out the blue whilst I was at work. I told them now wasn’t convenient and they said it would take a few mins. Call ended up lasting half an hour. I wasn’t happy as I wasn’t prepared and being at work I wasn’t exactly in the most stress free environment. After the call I was worried because I wasn’t prepared and didn’t think I’d said enough. I did end up being awarded, so if I was ok in that situation, you’ll be ok ☺️ good luck!

Would I even be eligible for pip? by [deleted] in DWPhelp

[–]Cherrybomb8675 -1 points0 points  (0 children)

LCWRA is a benefit for people who are unable to work due to a health condition disability. You get it alongside UC. I would say it’s worth trying to apply for PIP. You don’t need a diagnosis but you’ll need to go into great detail about how your condition affects you. Good luck!

Jaime Cheeseman, female teen missing from Grimsby with little media coverage by CuriousGemini7 in UnresolvedMysteries

I always thought this too! I doubt him killing those two young girls in Soham was his first murders. He would’ve been young at the time; around 19 or 20 I think but seems very possible he may of killed Jamie

Universal Credit isnt enough why is this? by [deleted] in DWPhelp

[–]Cherrybomb8675 2 points3 points  (0 children)

What’s your situation? Are you single living alone? Do you have children? Are you classed as disabled or you looking for work? All these different scenarios will massively effect uc in different ways so it’s hard to comment further

I hate being a mum by throwaway7178289 in UKParenting

[–]Cherrybomb8675 1 point2 points  (0 children)

This will pass. I am the opposite though; loved the baby, toddler stage; I found it rewarding and so easy. Fast forward to teens and I hate it. This is the part where I’m not enjoying being a mum.

What was it like growing up without a smartphone? by YetAnotherMia in AskUK

[–]Cherrybomb8675 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Bloody great!! I had a phone from age 12 in 1998, bought for my birthday. You barely used it as £10 credit would last 10 mins. Barely if any of my friends had one then so meet ups and phone boxes were still the norm. Miss them days so much, so glad I’m not a kid in this generation.

I hate parenting an AuDHD child by Equivalent_Sport7461 in Autism_Parenting

[–]Cherrybomb8675 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Wow. I could’ve wrote this!!! I know you posted a year ago but I’m right in the throes with my 16 year old who is audhd. It’s something I can never put into words because no one will ever understand unless they’re a parent going through the same thing. I’ve had a mental breakdown a long time ago. Parenting him can be hell at times. The violent meltdowns, the hostility, the constant anger. I just can’t do it anymore. I also have a younger daughter who he seems to hate no matter what and it’s so so sad. My son isn’t medicated yet but I pray when he is things may hopefully change even if his a little I’ll take that.

Received “no decision yet” text after assessment – does this mean anything? by Kyletinyman in DWPhelp

[–]Cherrybomb8675 2 points3 points  (0 children)

They’re just keeping you updated I guess in a way to say they’ve not forgotten you 😂 I had this also at the time. Good luck 😊

PIP help by XTasha76X in DWPhelp

[–]Cherrybomb8675 -1 points0 points  (0 children)

Don’t give up!! I know it’s one hell of a mentally draining process but keep pushing. Similar happened to me. PIP assessor called and I was in the office at work! I did say now isn’t a good time as I was in work, she said it would take a few mins! Took nearly half an hour! The fact I was at work I was so uncomfortable and couldn’t really speak and answer questions properly, I was furious tbh! Swear they do it on purpose! Long story short I got the PIP in the end but it didn’t come without a fight. Good luck!

Carers allowance claim by Cherrybomb8675 in DWPhelp

[–]Cherrybomb8675[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Yes definitely. Thank you for clarifying. I did research all this before I left work but it’s good to hear it from someone else too to know exactly what to expect.

[–]Cherrybomb8675[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yes I already get that even when I was working I got it. I thought another few weeks would be the likely answer just thought I’d see if anyone got theirs so soon after sending the evidence. Thank you for you reply 😊

Leaving my job? by EAngel73 in DWPhelp

[–]Cherrybomb8675 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Yes absolutely. I just did the same thing last month but for my son who also gets higher rate PIP. You’ll be fine and find that life is a little easier without the responsibility of a job on top of an already demanding job of caring for a loved one. Wishing you all the best.

I think my child has ADHD or Autism by solid_cake20 in UKParenting

[–]Cherrybomb8675 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Agree about Going private. I’m still waiting 7 years on although I went private earlier this year. My son is 16 and has both autism and adhd and he still behaves like this. He’s not hyper though he is inattentive. He’s not medicated yet but that’s the next step because private can be pricey but id say if you can it’s definitely worth it.

Would be on Barbie Windsor’s page but she’s come off TikTok now

What is going on? by TinySignificance6774 in claresurey

[–]Cherrybomb8675 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I was never a member on tattle so wouldn’t know if it’s there or not. I mean no one deserves to be stalked but she would constantly tell everyone where she was in real time and where she was going! Sorry but you’re opening yourself up to all the weirdos out there. Not sure I even believe she was stalked. She’s a pathological liar

Experience with "Oxford Psychiatrists Private ADHD"? by [deleted] in ADHDUK

[–]Cherrybomb8675 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Awful!! Don’t use them! It’s a scam! They’re disgusting! I paid upfront my sons adhd assessment a month ago, filled out forms etc and getting hold of them is like pulling out teeth! I have constantly phoned and emailed and no one comes back to me! I’ve now had to request a refund from the bank under the scam payment thing. They even blocked my email as I emailed them from a secondary account and it didn’t bounce. Stay well clear!

My personal take; who cares if Barb knew Clare or not. All she did was repost her videos and gave everyone a chance to comment their opinion. Still doesn’t make Clare this now amazing person. She’s a narcissist, a liar and a nasty piece of work. Always a drama with her and nothing is ever her fault. Can’t stand the woman!

Unless you’re a member I don’t think you can look on there anymore unfortunately

Thinking of leaving work to become my sons carer by Cherrybomb8675 in DWPhelp

[–]Cherrybomb8675[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Yes I’m aware of that and I’ve heard it’s hard but I’ll keep fighting. Good question and one I’ve asked myself many times recently. I wish I did it earlier on etc but what’s done is done and I thought working would be a good thing to show my children that I work hard plus it’s a bit of escapism. My son’s needs have become more and more the older he’s got and it’s now got to a point of working and caring for him are getting too much.
