Hi @Shaz51 how are you?

@TAB definitely agree with what you said in the dot points. People have a lot of reasons to NOT be on the forums in the first place. So being here at all is a good thing. It's also ok to not be here or just to lurk.

I don't have a job at the moment, will be looking for one at the end of this year/beginning of next year. Will probably look into DES like I've heard of others on the forum doing. I want NDIS but have struggled to find supporting documentation in the past for my autism that fitted what they wanted, so may need to get help around that when the time comes.

Sounds like a good game @MDT 🙂 Yes, we are so lucky to be Australian. I think my parents were smart to subconsciously choose to have me here out of all the places in the world they could have had me.

cant beat a postive attitude @BipolarPenguin I have zero experience with ndis but have seen others have success. I think its a stretch for me to get DSP, well , age is not a criteria ha ha lol well on top of other things.

Hello @TAB @BipolarPenguin @MDT @Shaz51 @Sophia1

Am back in from an evening walk about an hour ago and managed to cook something for dinner. Just turning in for the night now. How are you feeling @TAB? I hope you've picked up a bit by now.

nite @Former-Member I went back to bed again here

Hello @TAB , @Former-Member , @BipolarPenguin , @MDT , @Sophia1

How is your day going so far

I have lots of back pain at the moment, might have to see the doctor 🤔

Hello @Shaz51 I put my back out last week and was in a lot of pain. It seems to have righted itself the last couple of days. Possibly pinched nerve or back out of alignment. I hope the doctor can do something for you ❤️

Hi @Shaz51 hope you get it sorted.

I didnt sleep well again, went back to bed, feel better now. A sleep to get over a sleep. Ha.

got to drive 90 mins each way to go for job medical in few hours, trying to psych myself to blank it out, as in dont think it will go well, will just go through motions and/or not attempt things that put me at risk.

Hello @TAB good morning to you. I hope the medical goes ok. A 90 minute drive is a long jaunt for a job. Imagine the costs of petrol each day. I guess you just do what is required of you with jobsearch. I am glad I'm on a DSP. Its so hard to get shifted onto a DSP, at least its some financial security

@Former-Member job is not where medical is. its closest branch of chain they want me to use. 90mins closer than going to Adelaide. 90% chance my results will not be accepted I would say . however if do get through its fifo from adelaide to about as far north east as you can go in SA , nearly in QLD lol

so I would leave my car in storage in adelaide it would be 18 days on / 10 days off so about $10k/mth else would not even go to medical. have had jobs more than that after tax, but didnt last too long in it ha ha
