Benefit stress.

Stress of the benefit cuts on patients?

 Patient going through stress from the benefits cut could be the most common thing nurses could be having to cope with. 
Many services started to cut back in 2009 but the cuts on the benefits started about 2011. For many people who have gone through benefit cuts, if they didn't suffer Epilepsy, Anxiety and depression before hand they sure do during losing times of losing money. There's nothing worse than worry about whether or not you have enough money to pay the bills and eat. At least in the last five years or if not more so many people have lost their homes and ended up on the street or and dead but each person has had a very difference reason.

May I just guess sorry because I'm not completely sure, Britain may have had at least thousands of suicides up to the last five years or more over benefit cuts. Now it's getting more and more worrying to hear. It mostly hits vulnerable person, such people who have disabilities and health problems but other vulnerable people too.

It's not always possible for the Gps to keep a check on peoples' health throughout the time people are waiting for their appeal. Most people have health problems that make it hard for people to get out and about, this can make it hard for them to get to Gps and hospital appointment. Transport is far too costly and not everyone has friends and family get them round. A lot of people can't affront to pay carers and support workers to help them with every day living skills.

Food is a worrying thing  when very few shops, supermarkets and etc sell cheap healthy food. Most people have certain disabilities that affect them cooking a fresh meal safely such as chopping veg, picking up heavy saucepans and carrying a hot heavy roast out the oven. Even though there are special cooking aids not everyone can affront them mainly those who have had their benefits cut.
These microwave meals are not very healthy plus many of those meals are not very big but in the terms of safety a lot  of  people with disabilities and health problems tend to buy those because they are safe and easy to cook. Now that very few people can affront support more of them are living on microwave meals whether they have had their benefits cut or not.

A lot of people don't like putting on people and yes people do have other lives, which is why a lot of people suffer in silents. This is something the government needs to wake up to. People who need the support mostly can't affront it. It's common sense people having their benefits cut is the worst time of all because people worry so much about paying out plus most people hate borrowing money off people because even if they win their appeal it doesn't mean they will have enough to pay what they owe.

As brief as this may sound but it can be very serious to a point where a lot of people feel as if life isn't worth living when they have got all these things to worry about and it can be very hard for them to see an end to this stress.

Just to let you know guys that there's not a lot of difference between Anxiety, Depression and Epilepsy. These health problems can be caused by different things but it's most common  cause is from caused by stress. people with disabilities and health problems due to our disabilities and health problems handle the stresses and worries of life different and more sensitive compared to a lot of people without disabilities and health problems, mainly when it comes down to things like the benefit cuts.

Ok this patient they don't say have a learning disability but sorry to say Student Nurses, you may find yourself doing other Health profession's job at this rate. It looks like there's too much  neglect or and damage in the world of health whether someone is a vulnerable person or not.

How do these things come into a nurse's job?

• I understand that nursing be a very tricky of job but in all fairness, most things are private these days.
• If someone has taken an overdose it doesn't mean they will tell you the reason but then your not allow to ask either.
• All the same the most common reasons for over doses are the benefit cuts.
• All you can do is try to save peoples' lives the best way you can.

•  Some patients maybe having Suicide thoughts, it may well be a case that things are getting bad to a point where they are waiting to do something about before they get to the stage where they feel it's getting close to edge for them.
• It might be that they have been send different places from pillow to post not knowing which way to turn
•  You could well have patients coming to hospital after having took an over doses but it may not be necessary it would be to do with benefit cuts.
• Health problems may get worse because they may not have been able to get to the doctors without support they can't get.
• Some Gps may not have send them to the hospital but whatever it is has got worse as time has gone on.
• They may be light headed and feeling dizzy through not eating.
•   Lack of diet because of lack of money.
• A patient who has lost a lot of weight because of lack of money, he/she either hasn't eat or eaten very little.
• Even there are a few people who may lucky enough to eat a bit more than others, they could be eating wrong kind of food because it's cheaper than the health food.
• If they have transport problems they may only be able to shop very close to them where the healthy foods they may not be able to affront. 
• You may come across patients lack of energy. 
• How do you cope if you come across patients in those situations?

ser friendly is about been friendly towards people with disabilities and health problems. How would you like to be treated and spoken to? People with disabilities and health problems like to be helped when it’s needed. Just because people with disabilities and health problems need help more than others people shouldn’t treat them like babies and small children. Everyone needs help at some time no one should be wrapped in cotton wool to a point they can’t live in the big wide world. Why should people with disabilities and health problems be treated any different to other people just because we need more help than other people?

History of how people with learning disabilities and health problems.


In the past in war times, Adolf Hitler came into power in 1933, roughly six years before the war broke out. The German Nazi party passed a law that called for the sterilisation of people with 'diseases' that were thought to be hereditary.

Between October 1939 and August 1941 the Aktion T4 euthanasia programme operated in Nazi Germany. It aimed to rid society of those the Third Reich called 'Useless eaters.' It is estimated that between 70,000 and 100,000 disabled people were killed. Most were large-scale killings poison gas - a technique later used extermination of Jews in 'The Final Solution. This included people with learning disabilities, Mental Health, blind and deaf people.
people with disabilities have been classed as mental and physical handicap. The reason why people with disabilities were look upon that way is because no one understood us and we were a dangerous to society. We were treated very difference to non - disabled people but Adolf Hitler was against all races . We were very easy to target mostly by the likes of Adolf Hitler and the Nazis in world war 2.

Hitler finally called an end to the T4 programme following pressure from church and public. However, killings continued until the end of the war, often by lethal injection or starvation.

This was because all disabled people were seen as depending on the care of non - disabled people, which was hard work for the likes of Adolf Hitler, he saw people with disabilities as useless. Hitler didn't only hurt people with disabilities, he had a big problem with race full stop. For eg: he didn't like you if you were a Jew or if you were gay.

These day people with disabilities are feeling less useless and less guilty of how our disabilities affect our lives. There's a lot hard work to do yet. There are still people like Hitler about. We are all human beings whatever our race. We are human whether we have a race or not. Whatever kind of person we are we are there by choice or non at all. How people are in their race shouldn't worry you, there is more to everyone than just race. We all know the world is not perfect but lets have far less Hitlers now if not at all.

We would like to think things have moved since then but no. There's a bog concern that people who have their benefits cut get force into work they can't don without support by such places like DWP.  If you or anyone you know have faced these experiences you are more than welcome to email me on  sarajgorman@gmail.com

EXAMPLES OF HOW LIFE WAS FOR PEOPLE WITH DISABILITIES IN HISTORY.

Today the hospitals would have be paying a lot out of money for families who have experienced
neglected births. I was born with lack of oxygen to
the brain. This is was what caused me to have autism, epilepsy, dyslexia and may be even dyspaxia, which most things weren't known about. I know I never been badly disabled but I could have done without with what I was born. My Family couldn't claim any more in those day or they didn't know they could. I was born at the Beeches
old Nursing home on the Tettenhall road Wolverhampton, they neglected my Mum when she was having me. It doesn't mean I would have expected any of the money. In those days you had Terry toweling nappies and you were lucky if you had a washing machine, my Mum didn't. My family could have done with the money at that time because for eg; I was having to wear nappies longer that I should have. It doesn't mean to say that all these unnecessary things have stopped today. We would like to see that families and carers of people with disabilities get more support in everything that what we did.

I know I keep saying that it's about time people with disabilities started training and educating non - disabled people mostly to learn to understand is as human beings. Non - disabled people need to learn that we try very hard to learn from our mistakes. understanding us would be a big help to create a better future from having to learn from a very dark past now it's the 21st century.

All my family had extra hard work with me due to my disability, support was very little or not at all.

I think it took years to diagnosis my disability, now I don't think even now we are really sure whether I have autism or not. We know I have a disability of some sort for sure. Who knows if we have been told the truth or not? We know for sure that I have epilepsy because I had it in the past and it came back.

As for being hyperactive little did we know that too much sugar and may be even too much salt can caused some people be hyperactive mainly children, even now that we have been told more things, who really knows for sure?

Please drop me an email if you have any views or need any support the kind of subject I have just written about now. My email address is for all subjects to do with disabilities on this website. sarajgorman@gmail.com

·       We are hard work for society.

·       We are a danger to society.

·       We cost society too much.

·       We are to blame for our disabilities and health problems as far as society is concern.

·       We are made to feel guilty and ashamed to have been born in the first place.

·       We are only human just like you are so how can society make people with disabilities and disabilities and health problems feel life is worth living?

·       No wonder the rate of Anxiety and Depression is high.

·       What can society learn from the dark past to create a bright future?

·       How much has got better?

·       How much has got worse?

·       What’s good?

·       What’s bad?

·       What isn’t good enough?

One straight answer to one question.

Services need to let all their staff know of any changes in rules not only for people with disabilities and health problems but for everyone for example; can you support to fill my benefit form please, it needs to be posted for Monday? The answer shouldn't be yes and no off different people someone should know sure, it should be yes or no.

Transport information. Some people have no sense of direction mainly those people with Dyslexia, Anxiety and Depression. A map that stands out with different colours would be rather useful for most people whereas others it could be 123, abc or and bullet points for example.

Teaching programme

Paper Aeroplane. Instructions were easy to follow. For example someone like me with Dyspraxia may have problems with get the paper straight and equal.

 This task is an example of teaching all kinds of things such as wiring plug, putting and light bulb, they may have followed your instructions correctly their hands like mine may not be strong enough for example to be able to connect the wires safe and secure into the plug.

 A duvet on a bed cover might not be put into the condors tight enough.

A lot of equipment has changed compared to years ago, kettles now turn off on their own but they never used, it used to seem as if the kettle was never going to stop boiling. I was at least fourteen until I made my Mum a hot cup of coffee.

Microwaves are easier and safer than cookers for people like me to use but then food doesn't stay hot for long.  Those who need a lot of support to cook fresh food can’t always get that support to do so. Now that a lot of care and support services need to be paid for not everyone has enough on their benefits to pay for it.

Clear pictures and easy words could be another easy way for a person to follow instructions to learn do things step by step but they may need support to do and complete the task. For other people they may need support to read the instructions but they may do and complete the task fine so therefore you won’t find everyone has the same strengths and weakness.      http://www.housingcare.org/service/type-12-aids-equipment.aspx

Making and getting phone calls.

Mainly when making an important call you can always get to speak someone right away. Nine times out of ten you get the answer and the person can talk too fast you. Please leave a message after the tone that is all well and good but not always when something is important, which can depend when that person can reply to your message in the first place. It can work the same with emails and texts. I find they talk too fast when they say press this number for that and that number for this.

 Without discriminating  not many people with disabilities and health problems can understand foreign language, this can be very hard if we have make a call to a service and even harder if we get a call that we don’t except.
