Benefits

Hi,
I am really getting worried about the change in benefits. I have suffered with depression since I was 17 and have been on different types of antidepressants, I have been able to hold down a job until 1996 when I had a nervous breakdown and ended up in hospital, I have not been able to work since as I cannot concentrate for long with the medication I am on, I am also forgetting things and cannot mix with people anymore as this is one of the reasons for my breakdown, I once got my benefit stopped and had to go to a tribuneral which mad me upset and anxious, my sisters had to come with me, I got my benefit back but it was very stressful. I am so worried that I will have to go through all this again as they have sent me a form to fill in, I don't know how I am going to cope this time.
