Today the vlog is me just updating you on what has happened this week and how I am feeling. I do explain why. The fear I am living with is enhanced due to the events of the week.
But everyone in the UK living with chronic illness that has no choice but to claim for funding, lives with this type of fear.

WHO AM I:
My name is Charlie and I am disabled. I live with chronic illness, I have a severe form of Psoriatic Arthritis and its crap! I am in pain all the time and always battling fatigue. BUT, I will not let it win. I love to learn and to laugh (even though it hurts my arthritic rib cage LOL). You will often see Ollie (she) my black Labrador. She is currently my trainee assistance dog! We are together, literally ALL the time.
As there are a number of awful people who target us - the vulnerable - here is a link to my personal LinkedIn account. You can literally see the past 25+yrs of my career, people who have recommended me (as a Logistician as Disability Specialist is very new for me).

😞Charlie, don’t be scared, don’t give up or give in! What you are doing is wanted by those who are chronically ill, faced with PIP and need the help you are offering. Anyone that knows you, who has spent anytime with you, knows how kind hearted you are and how great it is to spend time with you. Stay positive. Haters always need something and someone to hate. Those of us with chronic illness just want to struggle less and you’re helping on that front.

@artemisiou 2 месяца назад

I'm 24, suffering with anxiety, depression, ptsd, P.O.T.S, vasovagal syncope, neuralgia, OCD, arthritis in my hips and knees, ADHD and Autism. I still didn't feel like I was entitled to PIP and that I'm just a leech on the system. I've recently found your videos that have absolutely given me the confidence that I am entitled to extra help. It's embarrassing and frustrating that I can't work a job, I don't want to be like this and it has made me genuinely suicidal that I can never live a normal life. Your videos have helped me with my PIP assessment phonecall. Thank you.

@wendywebster5920 2 месяца назад

I worked until 2023 until I was made redundant. I already had a score of disabilities, like you and it was very difficult to keep up the work I was doing (full time - I am amazed I am still here). Anyway, on benefits now. But, I want you to know that I paid into those national insurances (in 2 countries over the span of my working life) all those years for people like you (and now me). And I have done it gladly. You are entitled to those benefits and if you can, you should get them. And hey, may be one day, you may be able to help someone else in a very different way, when you are good and ready. Perhaps not through moneys, but in deeds or simply listening to someone. That's how life works.

After a work related injury in 2021 which resulted in an amputation and extremely limited mobility, I had dealings with PIP and ESA. My confidence is at an all time low, and anxiety at a high. Even making a phone call to these departments triggers dread and panic. Not knowing the system and the trick questions they pull equated to me being awarded zero points. They do make you feel like you're feigning injury, and i can completely understand now why some people take their lives. Every step i take is a painful fight. Sleeping is practically non existent, and there doesn't seem to be anyone willing to help. It's so difficult struggling to do things we all take for granted before a sudden injury or illness changes your entire life.

@digitaldogs233 2 месяца назад

As an ex promoter in social media and music you are correct. That is excacly how i would look at this, know your own truth, and those who don't know your truth inevitably take people on the trail to find out, in this case just a women with chronic illness helping other's. Often with what i did was to say a few things that was bait, just to make people curious, other wise they wouldn't care unfortunately sometimes it's how the system works, but trust me it work's. No one is going out to physically harm her, its just very well calculated words to try and push someone off their platform, fortunately for those doing it, it often works the other way lol, it actually brings more ettention to that person and often good things come from it. The old saying "sticks and stones can brake my bones but words will never hurt me" that's what Charlie should have in her for front mindset. Media sell media threw untruths, but even they know there's two edges to that sword.

Your videos helped to stop me having a complete mental breakdown when my review form came in. I am working hard on a university course and trying to keep my head above the water, and the PIP funds the things I couldn't get via Disabled Students Funding (aka DSA). Losing my PIP would mean I lose the things I need but can't get to help me study. At the time I was knee-deep in assignment hell, the form came through and I found you + your videos to help me calm down and do the form. That is how you have personally impacted me for the better - I sent the form off in time because of you and now I have a chance I otherwise would not have had, to remain in education. Thank you.

If the PM gets his way. With the new rules that he wants to tailor PIP. Make it more individual to person applying for it. Some of the things the PM has come out with is shocking. Reduce your payments and use the money to pay for hosptal visits for yourself instead. I did not realize I was entitled to private healthcare. As for mental health, there is a 2-year waiting list. Try investing into more of these services instead of leaving it down to charities. Deal with that instead Mr PM.

They want to encourage a suicide for the sick policy first, then the free euthanasia for prisoners and lazy and feckless contingents. The benefits sanctions are really designed to make people claiming housing lose their homes and with the stress of it do the above. Fit notes were originally going to be called Unfit notes but they decided against it as nudge psychology theory told them they could get a better kick off. rate by renaming to Fit rather than sick or unfit.

In Scotland PIP is now being replaced by ADP. Another change!!!! Let’s hope this is better than the change from DLA to PIP was. They had people being forced to come in for interviews one case for example was for a lady who had suffered a stroke left blind in one eye and one side of her body no longer worked. The person who was supposed to interview her took one look and awarded her full amount and apologised for all the trouble she had gone through to come for the interview. It’s shocking. Supposedly ADP won’t be doing interviews I don’t know if that a good or bad thing. There’s only so much you can covey via the form. But also the absolute anxiety and being judged and “diagnosed “ by a person with no knowledge of your illness was a disgusting joke 😢

I was fired from my job 17 years ago, and 2 years prior to that almost lost that job due to health issues which today are much more extensive than they were back then. However prior to that I've worked full time from the age of 18; I used to work 60-70 hours a week for years, to the point I collapsed (I was diagnosed with exhaustion by a gp who signed me off for a month) & have never fully recovered. I can literally count on my hands how often I leave my house in a year & I never do without assistance, I can't dress or bathe myself & yet PIP continue to say that I'm perfectly capable. I'm scared too, not only do we have to live with the fact that we can't live relatively normal lives, that we are vulnerable but now we have to deal with all this too - when will it end?

"Yes" means I have good concentration as driving requires complex skills! The fact on my form states that I can't drive all of the time and the reasons why was completely ignored!

It would only be a hit job. I would not bother with interviews. The government is only bothered about the money.

Yep, best thing in this situation is to say nothing to those who only seek their agenda I.e selling papers or story's. Like most things, this will just go, especially if Charlie herself doesn't feed into it, because that's excacly what they want, so they then can twist a narrative. You can't do that when there's no words spoke too twist.

@@Jeremiah59 I've watched him for year's and the "Mad lads" content is great. But yes he spoke on that, and wished he never trusted them to give his side of the story, they just added things in, misquoted him, and basically lied..so yer never trust the media, unless it's a independent one. But even then be mindful of what you say, more better be mindful of what you don't.

Great video. No one will ever understand chronic mental illness unless they have been touched by it. It doesn't just affect patients, it affects loved ones too. Presenting well does not mean you are well, it means you are masking and that is unsustainable. Do you honestly know what is really going through people's minds when you're talking to them? Do you understand how dangerous it can be to give any responsibility to, work alongside or be served by someone who presents well but really isn't ? Too many of those with mental illness present well and tell you that they are capable, when they can't even cross the Road safely. It is a mammoth task convincing them they are not well, because they are a danger to themselves and others.

Fatigue is the worst!!I used to think I was tired in my previous life (working 60hr week in retail) - but it’s nothing compared to this😖 you just can’t fight it - and brain fog?? Forget multitasking, I can barely string a sentence together without forgetting words or what I was saying - I interrupt people so much, because if I don’t, I forget what I’m saying…I’m only 52…I feel (and look) 92😞… glad I found your channel 🙌💖(we thank you)

You started this channel with a good heart and looking to help people. The media always want to demonise someone because it sells. The more they can sell, the more revenue they earn. They don't care who they hurt or attack. It's an acceptable form of bullying. I for one thank you even though I can't even get a claim form- I've been writing since August 23.

Charlie, all I can say is thank you. I won my appeal couple of weeks back, ending 17months of stress and anxiety. Thank you for all the advice, and hope you dont mind if I pass it all on to my brother and others I know or family. Spreading the word to fight against that bunch of mendacious vultures is the best thing I can do now. Well until they somehow decide my MS is magically cured again. ps Matilda you keep an eye on them birds 🕊.

At the end of the day , the British public , should asking why is the government so happy to pay millions of aid and support to illegal foreigners , but not sort our NHS out .

@@wendymitchell587Yes, exactly- doing that is exactly what the government wants us to do- they want us to blame fellow human beings instead of them to deflect from their failings. It's a genuine political tactic- look it up. And most importantly- don't fall for it! Hold the government accountable for their actions, not others they are also harming! Always be wary when the government and the media tries to make you scared of anyone different to you.

Hi Charlie, I just wanted to say that I found you last week because of the media attention and I'm really glad I did. I watched a couple of short videos and subscribed straight away because I knew I would be in need of your advice at some point, although I didn't realise how soon. I got a text this morning saying my PIP needs renewing so I imagine I'll be spending a lot of time watching your videos over the next few weeks. I'm sorry things are so difficult for you at the moment. I really hope the heat dies down quickly so you can continue to help those of us who need you without being hassled by idiots who have no idea how difficult and humiliating the PIP process can be. You really are providing a vital service.

Hi Charlie, Words cannot describe how supportive your advice & help has been to me. On really down days it’s been such a comfort to see you out there. I’ve gone from healthy, driven, always working & paying into a system I believed in. Until now I’ve never had to claim for anything. The political climate of setting people against each other is disgusting & gross. What people of health do not realise is that “We” have paid into a system & that system is designed to support anyone when they become vulnerable. It’s ironic that the “haters” do not direct their energy to the individuals that think they are too entitled to pay into the tax system. It seems to be the most vulnerable that are targeted as usual. Please take great care & know that you are not alone & I’ll try & remember that as well.

I live in fear of leaving my house incase someone might see me I have arthritis of the spine and multiple bulging discs I don't sleep much because of the pain and trying to get comfortable with twisting scoliosis. I'm 61 and get no help except pain medication and an occasional MRI as things change. My neck causes me constant headache And the arthritis causes chronic fatigue I haven't applied for pip, though I am on higher rate UC but soon to get the assistance needed financially I will have to apply for pip I'm scared too incase they change their decision and take the UC away too. Yep it's definitely a life style choice 🤦
