Applied for Pension

I have applied for disability pension again.

I was rejected last time but giving it another go.

I work three hours a week and can do so even though I’ve had paranoid thoughts about it them etc.

But I can not go to gym anymore or dance but hope to again in future.

I can not do most jobs .feel set up ,alone,attacked etc so think I need work alone like now I just clean a clients home.
No socialising required.
Also can’t actually function in person like that .

Hope I get pension this time.
If I do I will keep job I have now.
Maybe volunteer but fe paranoid about those places too.

But also keep managing care for self like eat n shower n exercise n etc that I need lot of .time in home.

I also feel employment agency my body has as such has been suppressing me,stealing and lying .

I got the job I have now all by my self when I was not required to look for work I chose to do so but told them I’m disabled -and only want start with few clients so they gave me only one now I have two i clean for.

I have goals and plans but I know myself and need take it in my own pace I reckon and what I’m up for etc.

How have your e xperiences been with pension if you have experienced it?

Here I can get disability, but would be homeless, they do not give you enough to live on, can apply for government pension to but they deduct anything you get from them. There are other sorts of things you can apply for but would not get the firsr year because the go on your previous years income. So if you worked you would not get approved

In the past I applied for VA disability, generally, I guess. Eventually was approved for VA service-related compensation, not VA non-service-related pension. What’s the difference between the two? I have no idea.

I live in Australia where the disability pension is becoming increasingly harder to get for those with a MI. Sorry you are not having any luck with your employment agency, in Australia there are many to choose from and you can ask to switch. There are also specific agencies that deal with people who have a disability and they are meant to be understanding and easier to deal with.
