@suey2y I mean how many days would you need to rest before and how many after? That's the big question?!

[Lucia 2.0 @Trustyourideas]

@hobospirituals @RuthAmyAllan @PlushieDreadful It's just another belief system, both are incompatible. There's no need to insult others belief systems. It's a worthy thing to note though. Why is one more acceptable than another?

[Lucia 2.0 @Trustyourideas]

@RITB_ @NHSEngland Unfortunately it's the same all across the sector. Unqualified and inappropriate people picking up the pieces of a broken system because they actually care about the people in the middle.

@DrFrancesRyan I need to be able to have treatment and get stable. I can't do that with the constant fear of losing my benefits. These are live saving for me. I can't get treatment elsewhere. /End.

[Lucia 2.0 @Trustyourideas]

@DrFrancesRyan I rely on the "risk" element of ESA bcos of multiple seizures a week (the only non automatic entry into LCWRA). I am really worried about the future. Every proposed change sets me back. Not only am I not fit for work, I won't be if I can't have a stable income. 1/

@k_runswick_cole even worse when the mother is actually "mad" as well..

[Lucia 2.0 @Trustyourideas]

@PaulbernalUK @BBCNews And this is why we are afraid. And this is why we don't speak out. Because then this happens.

[Lucia 2.0 @Trustyourideas]

@twlldun @PaulbernalUK @BBCNews Weird because mine does. Automatically.

[Lucia 2.0 @Trustyourideas]

@RachelCDailey definately in need of some counter articles telling people not to worry and to explain the process of any signifcant changes.

@810Aroura @dog_gem @EastMidRailway a literal pain for some people having to walk 4 or 5 times further to connect trains.

[Lucia 2.0 @Trustyourideas]

@Shrink_at_Large given my diagnosis I doubt it would be well known enough to make the list. i already struggle to provide enough evidence for benefits :(

[Lucia 2.0 @Trustyourideas]

@Shrink_at_Large For some weird reason having seizures is the only criteria that doesn't automatically get you LCWRA at highest points. You HAVE to rely on risk category. It's always been like that. It worries me greatly, especially as my seizures are mental health related.

[Lucia 2.0 @Trustyourideas]

@suey2y @BendyGirl @jdportes @liambyrnemp @Ed_Miliband @MarkFergusonMP @antoniabance @lukeakehurst @James___Lyons im so worried. i get LCWRA because of risk. Because having dangerous seizures is the only criteria that doesn't automatically give you LCWRA you have to go on the risk category. Thats what it was always designed as.

[Lucia 2.0 @Trustyourideas]

@BendyGirl and this is why it scares me that at the same time we talk about assisted dying we are talking about benefit cuts.

[Lucia 2.0 @Trustyourideas]

@Danwhite1972 the government are also talking about assisted dying. this isn't a coincidence.

[Lucia 2.0 @Trustyourideas]

@BeresfordPeter Because they are also looking at assisted dying. The two are linked. It is not a coincidence.

@theACEcharity @iburrell @theipaper @KemiBadenoch My daughter went to 2 hours a day at school, barely that. There were no places for her. she finally moved in January, after mainstream finally refused to keep her there. She is one of the lucky ones as she's now thriving where she belongs and has needs met.

[Lucia 2.0 @Trustyourideas]

@BendyGirl @CallMeMoNow Boo certainly can't do home school without severe mental health consequences. We know. Pandemic. She was allowed in school for this reason.

[Lucia 2.0 @Trustyourideas]

@BendyGirl So sad. Boo went 3 years achievement in 5 months in the right school.
Remove barriers to learning and she can do amazingly well.
Trying to fight against non academic but it's the majority. Prefer some to be academic tbh, gives a balance.

@BendyGirl There's a school like that in Mansfield. We are crossing everything that boos needs aren't too high so she can access. Mainly for autistic pupils unable to access mainstream. Will accept a certain level, but not too disruptive.
