This whole cost of living situation is making me feel sick.

Just been emailed by the energy company about up coming changes, government support ending & increased costs.

Then according to scope the disability charity people in receipt of UC are getting £900 paid in 3 instalments over the rest of the year.

This whole business has got me worried sick.

Then my son is asking can we go to the cinema this weekend.

Sigh. Feeling confused & lack anyone to share my concerns with.

Was reading the Martin Lewis advice about energy bill payments & I can totally relate to his comments about the value of having "price certainty".
