At approximately 2 a.m. a good friend and fellow fighter for disabled people posted what is below. Cally is a fellow fighter, she doesnt complain nor have I heard her mention her personal reasons for fighting against the DWP and Atos. The prime basis for all Government tests has been physical, no one, absolutely no one can judge the mental health of someone to any finite degree. This Government, and in particular Iain Duncan Smith is guilty of murder both the DWP and Government have been given the evidence. Deaths have been a regular occurrence, not isolated cases ~ they chose to ignore it. Now a friends young son lays fighting for his life, perhaps when he no longer wants it under this regime. He is 19 years old. There are no words I can send to Cally to convey my wishes or thoughts - just I will not give up the fight. ----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Funny how folk post their problems in here,but I never imagined I would. Today at 2.30 my gorgeous 19 year old son tried killing himself by taking a massive overdose of pills.It was not a cry for help it was intended to be fatal.He wanted to die. He felt life was not worth living any more due to the way he has been made to feel by the assessments and stigma attached to his conditions. He tried so hard to keep it from his friends and ended up losing them all through not explaining his problems to anyone. He had to quit his job,and became more or less a prisoner in his own bedroom. Even with the best help from an amazing team of people he couldnt fight his guilty feelings,thinking he is a failure and thinking he was letting me down. At this point hes still in resus at A&E.His heart isnt beating properly and one eye is not reacting to light, he may pull through, I dont know.Will he ever be the same again - I dont know. What I do know is Im going to get revenge for the way hes been made to feel, and for the way the system treats vulnerable disabled people with disabilities that are not always visible. Hes currently wired up from every limb and Im scared beyond words for him. He has compulsive disorders, Agoraphobia,and social anxiety disorder and until the ambulance today he hadnt left the house at all for 8 months.My blogs were always about him. Im sorry but Im not going to be around for a while,just came home to shower and let the dog out, then obviously going back to A&E.
