Disability Bitch vs 'the news'
Theres been something in the news about a paranoid schizophrenic training to be a black cab driver in london there has been protests by black cab drivers about it even giving up a days pay bob crow the transport union guy said that he does not mind the said person being in the community but that he should never be allowed to carry passengers anywhere how nice of him apparently the man with paranoid schizophrenia has now been rejected from the training he killed his partner in the past did his time in prison and now i guess just wants to get on with his life how is that for news DB? makes eastenders seem like the simpsons
Disabled or just weak?
A freedom pass is great i have mine for a mental illness and have put it in another wallet which is still orange but with a funky design. It is a mission to get it renewed every two years as the criteria becomes more difficult as time goes on and as the council pays for it i might have to jump through hoops come march. Also i understand that if i have a car i should not be entitled to a freedom pass. But due to the highs and lows and periods of psychosis with hospital admissions,over the years i have a car as well. I use the freedom pass to access services and london and the car for convenience i do not need a blue badge but a freedom pass is a breath of fresh air.
After the psychosis has gone
Its been a journey for me to find the cause i have found several reasons but the damage has been done the so called neuro toxic effect on the brain that each psychotic episode has has been like going through a war where the only enemy was inside myself the system was unable to cope the hospital like the hotel from hell the so called proffesionals clueless and the isolation afterwards like being the only person left in the world with any sanity
