hi people, ad i didn't know where to put this post i thought when i saw this i would put it here. i have just put a request to my doctor's for a sick note to keep the torture of the DWP off my back. but. to be signed off i have to explain i have PTSD - problem is it's through assault, how do i get round this without saying much. i don't want to be diagnosed with PTSD through psychiatry like dwp will expect and i don't see why i should tell them i was raped, it's too painful. help! how do i explain without detail? i hate the DWP with vengeance. i don't know how to do this.
