From my sister. I'm in the support group for ESA due to mental health issues. She has moaned to my mum that it's not fair she has to work so hard and I can get free money, and that I ought to get a part time job instead.
I've worked my whole life and it's contribution based esa, my dh has a good job but we had a shortfall after I was signed off and subsequently left my job. I've tried to take my own life twice in the last three months and getting through the day alive is my priority at the moment.
My psychiatrist and gp say I'm too ill to work but apparently my sister thinks I should just pull my socks up and do an evening job like she does.
Aibu to be spitting fucking feathers? Posting here so I don't phone her and give her both barrels.

AIBU?
I've only been on ESA for a month and I've already had my first 'you should just get a little job instead' comment.
