Pregnant with twins. Been off for three weeks due to severe HG which luckily is stopping now. However I have ligament pain so severe I can barely stand, exhaustion so severe I fall asleep in the day, and just generally feel unwell. My pregnancy is high risk for numerous reasons which makes me nervous.

To top it off, work burns me out generally. I have aspergers and ADHD, and generally work makes me exhausted and depressed. I can’t explain it other than it uses all my energy and I end up a shell of myself, unable to function and just fall asleep as soon as I come home.

However...there’s nothing horrible about my job. Colleagues are nice, office is nice, decent hours and nothing too difficult.

Why am I feeling so shitty about it? I can’t have more time off as I don’t have much sick pay. I started this job pregnant so won’t even get SMP. :(

PIP is for disabled people, regardless of whether they can work or not. It’s not the out of work benefit.
