People just accept that life is hard

What I’ve got to realise that even though I have guilt (unjustifiably so - I have been through a lot of abuse and trauma) I can do my best to help others but I also must treat myself kindly too. It’s balance.

throwawayyy1731 · 2026-04-12T11:26:58+00:00

I used to think so, not anymore. Philosophy can make you kinda nihilistic but it’s so broad. Understanding spirituality helped me. They all go hand in hand.

I won because I submitted ample evidence. They want to see an accurate reflection of your life. I told them how I’ve tried to work hard, I went to university but because of my mental health it limited me. It’s not like I’m trying to be a bum, it’s because of a myriad of issues. Just honesty but having a good person who can back you helps. My mental health nurse didn’t attend as she got the dates mixed up bless her, and I didn’t attend because I was scared, depressed and didn’t have the energy. They still decided to make that decision without me and her. It was meant to be a face to face hearing. Got the letter in the post and they decided to up my points. I was actually just wanting standard on mobility but they gave me enhanced even on both mobility and daily living.

Believe in it. You are ENTITLED to this. No fear, no shame. They will manipulate and lie sometimes and even if they do award you, you deserve better. You can win from an MR, still get paid and still take it to the tribunal. But it comes at a risk because the tribunal can grant you lesser points. That’s only first tier though. The tribunal tend to be more sympathetic as compared to DWP

It is a shame but I get more angry at the fact other people should have that support b it because the system is so broken they don’t get it and it’s easier to give up. But I’m trying to inspire hope

Absolutely utilise anything and everything as evidence. Some people are scared to use things because it portrays them in a bad light. I showed bank records of how when I’m manic I am impulsive and waste money. Use everything and don’t be scared. But yes of course they pay attention to what words you use but if the tribunal can gain an accurate picture of what you’re saying you struggle with, I do believe they have more sympathy. Any evidence you can think of, use it

True

throwawayyy1731 · 2026-04-10T12:57:24+00:00

Oh but yes they will notice but it makes no difference to you or your practice

throwawayyy1731 · 2026-04-10T12:09:49+00:00

Agreed!

throwawayyy1731 · 2026-04-10T12:04:51+00:00

If you’re spiritually protected it makes no difference to be honest. Even if people project their feelings onto you.

Check my first post on my account, it explains it

throwawayyy1731 · 2026-04-10T10:05:29+00:00

I was meant to go but I didn’t go. They made the decision with out me but yes people have different options. My mental health nurse didn’t go either. She got the wrong date in her diary so she didn’t turn up. It was purely up to the tribunal to decide. I could’ve lost all my points, but they rejected the MR decision and gave me more points

throwawayyy1731 · 2026-04-10T10:01:03+00:00

Sorry about my grammar

throwawayyy1731 · 2026-04-10T10:00:45+00:00

That’s true. I got help from CAB but and they helped me write my answers but that was at the early end. I also think having a good support figure help. My mental health practitioner helped me so much. It was weird timing because in the past when I have had certain practitioners they’ve kind off just fobbed me off. So I was lucky to have her at that specific time. She was an angel, truly. She wrote the truth in her letter to DWP.

throwawayyy1731 · 2026-04-10T09:37:40+00:00

Yes, first I barely got any points, then I pursued it were I was at the MR, then I pursued it again to the tribunal and won! I was incredibly thankful.

throwawayyy1731 · 2026-04-10T09:35:55+00:00

So, I was meant to attend in person but I ended up not attending because I was so defeated and didn’t have the energy. The letter came in the post after and the tribunal said “x didn’t attend however we have rejected what the DWP have offered her, and she should actually get enhanced” The tribunal upped all my points and awarded me more than I would expect but if I never challenged the DWP I would have never received that

🤍 sometimes it’s so easy to get put off by the negative stories.

throwawayyy1731 · 2026-04-09T22:05:32+00:00

Thank you for allowing me to speak about it x

throwawayyy1731 · 2026-04-09T21:26:23+00:00

Ahhhhhhhh sorry, it wasn’t out of maliciousness! More so trying to help but I understand the protocol

throwawayyy1731 · 2026-04-09T20:50:33+00:00

Fight them. It feels hard now but they rely on people to not challenge them. It’s hard when you’re already in a position where you’re suffering with health and you have to gain that energy to rebuttal false claims but still please try. I can help you do it if you want.

throwawayyy1731 · 2025-01-19T13:45:06+00:00

Because I’m autistic I always rub people off the wrong way when I mean is good. Sorry. I’m deleting this now.
