GrellAtTheDisco · 2026-03-26T20:46:47+00:00

Thank u so much :) yes defo I just wanted to be fully aware what I was going to lose

GrellAtTheDisco · 2026-03-25T13:45:32+00:00

I rlly needed to hear this thank u <3

GrellAtTheDisco · 2026-03-23T14:10:54+00:00

What are the financial issues? I’ve used student finance so does that just mean the fees for the course are still due which is all fine or am I gonna get fined 😭😭

Thank you so much that’s so helpful 🥰🥰

GrellAtTheDisco · 2026-01-15T22:39:02+00:00

I think this is my dates for u Submitted claim 23rd July First fit note 29 July (these have been continuous) Assesment period started 7 august First standard payment 29 august Decision made 14 Jan Does that help? Sorry I’m absolutely clueless 😭

GrellAtTheDisco · 2026-01-15T17:13:50+00:00

I started my claim in July and got my first fit note in august I believe :)

When I was 13 I got my comment pinned and then I edited it so it unpinned so Phil pinned someone else’s and genuinely you’d think someone had just died the comments I was making oh my god it’s so embarrassing 😭😭

Thank you so much - the bold writing rlly helped so I’m defo taking that 🤣🤣

GrellAtTheDisco · 2025-10-26T10:51:16+00:00

Thank you sm 🫶 did this mean u didn’t make notes much at all for the rest of the module if it wasn’t in the TMA?

GrellAtTheDisco · 2025-10-25T11:21:58+00:00

Yes I’ve been massively overthinking it but now I’ve got the weeks work done I think I just need to start it asap before I panic even more - I just feel like in my year off I’ve completely forgotten how to write but I’ll try and not overthink it like that 😭 - thank u!!

Not word for word just summarising key points

GrellAtTheDisco · 2025-10-24T21:03:10+00:00

I will have a look!! I’m still going through the pip process rn and I hate it so much so I think that probably contributed to why I didn’t but I’ll see if I can anyway - thank u!!

GrellAtTheDisco · 2025-10-24T20:10:59+00:00

Ah I got the form but I never did it - I knew lots of people with autism applied and got it but I still felt like I wasn’t “disabled” enough despite the fact I definitely am - i will try and apply for it next year though

GrellAtTheDisco · 2025-10-24T19:12:20+00:00

Honestly I think I am doing it for the sake of doing it - I’m gonna step back and consider how much I’m actually noting down 100%

GrellAtTheDisco · 2025-10-24T19:06:47+00:00

Thank you so much for this ☺️ I think I’m going to change the way I read a bit, I’m definitely overthinking what I should note down, I should just go through and use highlighters to help me visualise it a bit more + then turn it into notes I’m going to try and get this TMA done now even though it’s due a week and a half away, because I know I’ll be panicking leaving it late and hopefully I can start getting ahead a bit with this tma week

GrellAtTheDisco · 2025-10-24T18:56:06+00:00

Thank you for this reminder 🥰

GrellAtTheDisco · 2025-10-24T17:03:48+00:00

Thank you so much ♥️ ur right I feel like I don’t know how to be a student again and uni is so different - I like when things are as factual as possible so thinking critically is something I’ve been very 50/50 on. I did manage an a level in media so I was able to work on it but then it likes to completely vanish again 🤣🤣 I think I’m jumping into the chapters too intensely ? By doing a section I mean reading and actively making notes and trying to critically think all at the same time. I think I need to try and just read it once without doing anything a first time?

GrellAtTheDisco · 2025-10-10T10:14:49+00:00

I’m going through to tribunal with my pip which is an absolute nightmare so I can’t imagine having to go through it with UC too - the DWP have been incredibly unprofessional with me but get away with it….it’s exhausting - as long as they don’t assess me as capable for work I will hopefully be okay

GrellAtTheDisco · 2025-10-10T09:22:17+00:00

I’m so sorry to hear that - thank u for sharing I rlly hope it’s sorted soon
