Glutathione deficiency (as the doctors ignored further investigation this was my own diagnosis), meaning it could've been from an injection when I was 8, it was probably a thermometer I chewed up when i was like 4 but I noticed instant drastic life changes after the injection and life's never been the same since.

Starting to get all these food allergies and **** too lol.

i'm glad i don't have to be on the dole anymore.

Luckily I've been off Centrelink for the last 8 years (due to sheer laziness when I left high school) but once I got off I vowed never to get back on it again.

Glad I'm still involved in a way otherwise my child care bills would be feckin hugemongous.

That said, job network providers are pretty woeful. They look for heavy lifting jobs for people with bad backs - nice of them, eh?
I did it for 4 years with severe IBS and a sleeping dissorder.

I love it when dog ****s write **** about people on Centrelink on facebook that are studying a fricken hard topic which takes about 50 hours study a week. Especially when they've been working for 5 years straight.

Here's the thing, I'm using centrelink incentives to study. Something I've wanted to do for a long time. In no way is it the easy way.

I've got a health care card, comes in handy with train tickets, half price commuting to TAFE and cheap meds, $5 for perscriptions, discount on rego.

I lose it soon though, going to second year apprentice is going to push me over the limit, oh well.

A couple of observations;-

Avoid any form of GovCo social service interaction; and
Avoid police and HWP in your daily driving and life routine:-)

Where at all possible. REM 'pensions and benefits' are not always a surety, particularly if financial poo hits the fan in the years ahead.
