(Single parents) How has the cost of living crisis impacted your mental health?In short the cost of living crisis has caused me to feel very bitter about life & living in the UK.
It goes without saying, we as residents here, subscribe to a system of paying taxes. It's not my fault I had this accident & am not able to work as a consequence. It could happen to anyone. We are only ever a pay day away from claiming benefits.
I think the Tories have written off anyone who's not what they deem "economically active". Yuck!!! What a vile phrase!! As 'if' we only contribute to society when in a job!!!??? What a lot of rot that is! So very wrong to believe it!
Obviously stress increases the amount of pain I experience. Which in turn affects what I can or can't do. So getting wound up over things that I can't control is a waste of my time & energy.
Although at times it's very tricky to stay focused on the positives with a government that in truth wants to see an end to benefit systems in the belief that communities or people will find support in other ways.
Give some of these politicians their own way & we'll become a mini USA. Horrible idea.
