Had trauma counselling today and work agreed to reduce my hours whilst I am healing to go to trauma counselling. Universal Credit asked me about change circumstances and health and need a GP Appointment to get a “Fit Note” to evidence the reasonable adjustments at work. Then been informed by work that the unpaid Reduced hours make my sick HR file look and go into negative. Feeling low and emotional exhausted as trying to heal from Domestic abuse trauma but having to jump hoops and feel stigma for reducing hours with work. Worried about such tight budget when in the news all about prices water etc going up and up . I know doing my best as a parent but I know going have to ask for a food parcel support before end Easter break.
