Agoraphobia an advantage these days ?

My friend has agoraphobia and I think it is a bit unkind of him to send me this email ...



"......the country is 90% plus idiots, you realise that 90% is too low a figure



this is evident from the soft language being used by the guvmint to get people to stop unnecessary socialising and stay at home



they talk about realising it being such a huge big ask and such a huge sacrifice.......awwww diddums, boohoo..........



this whole pussy footing around is exactly what a weak parent does trying to cajole a baby



.......and there is the point, they obviously (or subconsciously) realise they are talking to a complete nation of great big spoiled babies that require infantile cajoling



pathetic how these babies can't content themselves at home given the consequences of not doing so"


wish he wouldn't copy my posting style as well...tee hee


As Kilgore Trout said: " Get out of my body bag!"

If he is agoraphobic, he will base his opinions on those he meets - ie his circle of friends.

Actually, some of us feel we provide a public service and all for free, if all of us volunteers did not do what we do, there would be a lot less services out there for the vulnerable. I think we should be on the protected register, but many of us are older and seen as vulnerable ourselves To me if we DO get the virus, then its up to us to be sure not to infect others as far as we can, but there is no such thing as total isolation. You do need food, you do now need to get that food in person since people shopping on your behalf are being turned away as hoarders. Brian

How do agoraphobics get to their DWP assessments ?.
