Hey Kernip. I'm in the UK mate and know a little bit about getting help if your struggling with medical conditions and maybe financially also. Usually goes hand in hand.
First off you need to make sure you get whatever your entitled to if your not working. Maybe you've sorted that out but a lot of people are unaware of various entitlements and also the various schemes, educational studies and so on which can at least help you get out the house when your feeling a bit better, Spring is coming here so maybe try and look ahead for some simple courses. Many are free and its OK to go on them if your claiming benefits linked to medical conditions.
You'll see anyone from teenagers to pensioners on educational courses. It is a good atmosphere which is a different world from school and the usual count of kids who don't want to be there and some who should not be there. Adult education is a choice so nobody is there who does not want to be.
Maybe the government and other higher ups want to write many off to the scrapheap but we don't have to play ball and I'm guessing cuts in the UK relating to many various useful activities, education, leisure and health care will lead to bad trouble. Disorder and whatnot.
A lot of elderly cannot fight for themselves and so maybe we should in our way help were we can. Voluntary work might be an option.
I'm thinking ahead a little bit but there are things you can do and steps you can take when your feeling a bit more confident in yourself.
We're always here to help you try and get that way. It can be done brother.
Best of luck with getting help but bear in mind you can vent here all you like and nobody is going to blink as I'm sure everyone understands that its part of a healing process - part of the search to discover what makes you tick in the right direction.
Sometimes you want to tick but you don't give a tock.
PS, OK, the last statement is maybe one I've made up - but all the same.
