@DrFrancesRyan Itโ€™s demonising people with disabilities like myself who have both physical and mental challenges. Iโ€™ve even reminded people I have a job and still looking for more work because I can barely afford to live. Iโ€™m not lazy and their judgement is actually depressing.

#NotASchoolSkiver I am a survivor of trauma, abuse and neglect with me leaving to go to university the only thing that saved me. I worked 4am to 11pm during my A levels and when I had the same thing my sister had that put her in hospital I was forced to work on the farm. 1/

#NotASchoolSkiver 3/ Even when I was in school some teachers refused to help me learn. I was bullied constantly for my home life and because of my neglect. I was not allowed to shower more than once a week. If I did anything wrong Iโ€™d be locked out of the house or no food.
