Hi,
Could anyone help me?
I saw the disability advisor on Wednesday at the job centre. She said it is mandatory that i go and attend the work programme.
I have Depression/Social Phobia/ Anxiety and OCD and suicidal thoughts.
The advisor was told of this by my mum as i do not go out alone, i do not answer the telephone or make calls or even open my letters. I do not talk to strangers, my mum spoke to this woman for me as i have extreme shyness.
I have suicidal thoughts daily about overdoseing on tablets which my GP knows about and has issued medication and has reffered me for counselling.
I am in the work related group but am appealing to be put in to the support group as the disabilty advisor said maybe its where i should be.
I have an appointment for the work programme on Monday 28th April, the letter asks me to bring a job seekers agreement and asks what kind of work am i looking for and how many hours in the last 4 weeks have i been preparing for interviews/ applied for jobs.
I have not been looking for work as every day is a struggle with these thoughts i get, just thinking about going to this appointment makes me want to jump infront of a train, I am due to see the GP on the same day about getting support and different medication.
What will happen if i do not go to the work programme appointment? I am going to get my mum to phone for me on Tuesday and explain to the advisor.
Thank you for helping me, Im worried sick and feel i would be better off not being here.
