okay ik im posting on reddit alot but i have no one else to talk to about this stuff, you guys are the only poeple helping me because i dont have my parents 🥺

it says and i quote

"While I acknowledge that the applicant may be restricted to a degree due to her condition, the AME at this time does not establish substantial restriction for the next 12 months for suitable employment as per her age, education and experience, in particular work of a light or sedentary nature with reasonable accommodations"

?? i have supports at school and i still cant go there. i wonder what i could even attach to my appeal to show im struggling. its almost like they think im too young?

i could wait years even decades and look back and my application would still be "under review" . is my deciding officer asleep?

and you know what frustrates me. my sister got her jobseekers in a week. ONE WEEK. 254 (the same rate we're being paid btw, #watdatmean) weekly. and me? well, ill have to wait 10 weeks to get potentially fucking DENIED my essential financial help because im not disabled enough. or because im too young. or because my deciding officer is a prick. we're getting paid the same rate people on jobseekers are being punished by, and pushed into going back to work by because "this isnt enough money to support anyone" yet thats what we're getting and yeah no ours is gonna take 10 weeks while yeah u can quit ur job and get it tomorrow

its almost like a slap in the face, it feels like people with disabilities arent looked upon like humans maybe more like a "finacial liability" and "lets draw this shit out until they forget about it and deny them life because we need to pour money into phone pouches in secondary schools and bike sheds (wtf even is that) and paying doll hoppers their weekly allowance"

i cant afford shit but its okay its fine its dandy i have another 33,550,336 weeks to wait dw

i included my middle name on my cao (the one i go by in school and at home) but its not on my passport or birth cert. i still have my first name on there but its first name, middle name, last name and on my passport its just first name last name

what do i do!!
