Re: Not sure what to do !!!

Hi @Shaz51

If your doctor gave you a certificate for not working would this help you to get some financial backing from Centrelink - I can't help but think that you need it as much or even more than other people

And I understand that it is really hard to convince Mr Shaz about anything once he gets anxious - this is a problem and must make things harder for you - it must be like pulling a rabbit out of a hat when there is no rabbit and no hat.

No rabbit and no hat - aw

And your Mum's arm doesn't sound good - now it's weeping -

Life sounds tough Shaz - and yes - I think you are working too hard too but maybe you feel better with something to do all the time - I wish you the best though

Re: Not sure what to do !!!

Lots of love from me too @Shaz51 . I think it's a really good idea that you are showing Mr you can live on less. Sometimes modelling behaviour achieves a lot more than words can. Hang in there lovely. I'm sure your Dr will do the certificate for you. And that you will be eligible for c'link assistance. Might be worth applying for the disability support pension too (with your Dr supporting your application it really helps).

Sorry to hear about your Mum's arm. Hope it clears up soon.

xoxo
