Anxiety and Depression part 2.

·       The stress of the benefit cuts are making people with disabilities and health problems unwell.

·       Many people have had suicidal thoughts and many have taken their own lives.

·       When people have had their benefits cut there's no money for counselling for those who really need it.

·       With the cuts the government has made it's surprising there are some Counselling services open but for how long for, even for those who haven't lost their benefits.

 The cuts and changes to the benefits.

There are a lot of changes and cuts to the benefits in Britain.

The stresses of the changes are too much for people with disabilities and health problems.

This can make people worry.

This can make people ill.

This can even cause death, if it gets far too much for people.

It is so wrong of the government to take money off people who need it most.

No one wishes anyone to be homeless but people with disabilities find it hard to look after ourselves more than other people.

 Back in 2011, I had a letter DWP telling my Incapacity benefit was changing to Employment and Support Allowance.

 The letter was full of jargon and there was too much information to understand.

 There was far too much information for me to read and understand.

 DWP should not send out unexpected letters or give people unexpected call, the Job centre staff make people aware of the changes face to face in the Job centre.

 Days, months, years and time need to be made out clearer to when the Jobcentre wants us in to tell us about the benefit changes and so they can make other places they may have to be aware. 

 We could get a call or and letter any time to tell us our benefits have changed.

 It is hard to plan our support when we don't know when they are going to call.

People are expected to work; they can't be expected to be sitting at home waiting for the Job Centre to call.

 When something happens people don’t except this can bring their Anxiety and Depression so people should know in plenty of notice.

The cuts are risks to lives of vulnerable people.

There are worries for no reason other to save money that jobcentres will cut a lot of peoples’ benefits.

How the cuts are affecting vulnerable people.

 A lot of vulnerable are on a lot less money to socialise which stops many getting out and meeting people to access friendships and relationships of their choice

  It's important to vulnerable people to access friendships and relationships as much as it is for other people. A lot of vulnerable people have lost a lot of their social events through the cuts.

 Communication seems to be a big problem between vulnerable people and other people as a whole.

·       Despite of the communication barrier vulnerable people still have the rights to communicate with others the best way they can.

·       It’s important for vulnerable people to mix with other people otherwise they will lose self confidence.

·       Other people just need to make more effect to understand them.

 About the cuts.

·       No one should be forced into situations that are not right for them without support.

·       Vulnerable people should have as much rights as other people.

·       Vulnerable people should be able to ask others for support they want it and need it.

·       Vulnerable people hate been a Burrton to others.

·       Vulnerable people hate being a centre of attention.

·       Vulnerable people hate been hard work or and costing others a lot of money.

·       Vulnerable people shouldn’t be made to feel they are to blame for everything.

·       With the right support vulnerable people should have equal lives to other people.

·       These cuts are making times move backwards instead of forwards.

·        These cuts are likely to affect other areas of life if the Tories stay in power.

Epilepsy, Anxiety and Depression worry and stress can affect.

Epilepsy.

This may not be epilepsy, if not what is it?

It may well be Anxiety panic attacks.
Why come back after twenty years?
Why haven't felt well for the last mouth?
Headaches, shakes and the room moving round and round.
The tablets cure one thing and bring another thing on.
I feel shaky and tired.
I am not looking forward to a brain scan, flashing lights and electric stick glue wires in my hair.
It's like a big storm inside my head.
It causes your nerves to be bad mainly when you have waiting to see if you pass or fail. 2001 onwards.

IThe risk of post-traumatic seizures increases with severity of trauma (image at right) and is particularly elevated with certain types of brain trauma such as cerebral contusions or hematomas.^[22] As many as 50% of people with penetrating head injuries will develop seizures.^[20] People with early seizures, those occurring within a week of injury, have an increased risk of post-traumatic epilepsy (recurrent seizures occurring more than a week after the initial trauma).^[23] Generally, medical professionals use anticonvulsant medications to treat seizures in TBI patients within the first week of injury only ^[24] and after that only if the seizures persist.

 Emotional and behavioural problems [edit]

TBI may cause emotional or behavioural problems and changes in personality.^[15] Emotional symptoms that can follow TBI include emotional instability, depression, anxiety, hypomania, mania, apathy, irritability, and anger.^[9] TBI appears to predispose a person to psychiatric disorders including obsessive compulsive disorder, alcohol or substance abuse or substance dependence, dysthymia,clinical depression, bipolar disorder, phobias, panic disorder, and schizophrenia.^[16] About one quarter of people with TBI suffer from clinical depression, and about 9% suffer mania.^[17] The prevalence of all psychiatric illnesses is 49% in moderate to severe TBI and 34% in mild TBI within a year of injury, compared with 18% of controls.^[18] People with TBI continue to be at greater risk for psychiatric problems than others even years after an injury.^[18] Problems that may persist for up to two years after the injury include irritability, suicidal, insomnia, and loss of the ability to experience pleasure from previously enjoyable experiences.^[17]

Behavioural symptoms that can follow TBI include disinhibition, inability to control anger, impulsiveness, and lack of initiative, inappropriate sexual activity, and changes in personality.^[9] Different behavioural problems are characteristic of the location of injury; for instance, frontal injuries often result in disinhibition and inappropriate or childish behaviour, and temporal lobe injuries often cause irritability and aggression.^[19]

 Worry and stress can affect people with Epilepsy as much as it can affect people with Anxiety, Depression and other health problems.

 In many cases most people have most health problems; therefore they are more likely to find the stresses of life harder to manage than other people.
