Spit out the PIP

My word but moving house is super stressful.

I’m happy because I’m moving to new pastures.

Life has been a mind haunting experience over the past 2months. 

My anorexia nervosa reared its ugly head because I needed some form of self medicating after stopping toxic self medicating. 

I lost over  2-3 stones!

I love food.. I have recently  been bingeing on food. My husband can’t stop me. After a binge,I’m verbally abusive to him, because I feel so ashamed and disgusted with myself.

I chew  the food and spit it out.

  My weight has gone up to 8stone 10 from 8stone.

I’m  angry because I  rely on government money for my illnesses.

I’m trying to get better.

I have an assessment award review in 3weeks time and, well… I feel like I need to lose the weight I’ve gained to justify my illness.

I attempted a serious suicide overdose in , May 2020.

I was in a coma for 5days on life support and a further 5 days in critical ICU care.

I’ve  done 4 serious suicide attempts   in 2 years and 2months.

I tried to jump off a well known bridge. 

I had 5 people hold me down so I couldn’t  jump.

Now my gut instinct says try and kill myself. 

I’m  tired of my illnesses. 

I wish I could have a job that covers my bills.

My daughter who is 9 years old has never been on holiday-not even in the U.K. because I can’t afford it.

I’m bricking it. I have a lot of paperwork to prove I’m  ‘seriously* ill as my family and husband states. 

I can’t move time ahead nor make the assessor re approve my  extra income.

Not having control over my world is debilitating  but I have to focus on my new life and have a plan B if I am not awarded PIP.

  1. It would make me unbearably sad to hear that you’ve passed. The least of which, there would be no more poetry & free spirited stream of consciousness to draw strength from. 😔

    Please don’t beat up yourself for relying on outside assistance. I’m in a similar situation due to the pandemic, and admittedly it makes me feel uncomfy after doing for myself the past few months.

    i’m bad at giving advice on how to be happy :/ but you are loved. please be gentle with yourself.
