I had a troubled up bringing and have been looking after myself since i was 16. The first place i lived in was a hostel in bayswater!
I was always working even though i suffered from depression it was very hard for me coping but i managed, at the age of 23 i came too Clapham common, it brought a smile too my face it
was the first time i actually felt like i had a home. I have been living at 13 Lillieshall for about
14/15 years with my cat. In that time i have had problems my depression got worse and i
started drinking, my experiences that i had as a child still needed to be dealt with. I went to
rehab in November 2011 and even though it shut down while i was having my treatment i managed to come home and carry on with my treatment in Janus Solutions in Brixton. I
had my graduation June the 20th 2012.
I am still in recovery and about to start having
Psyechodynamic Psychotherapy. I am working on all areas of my self that i suppressed for
so long, I just won an appeal for my employment support allowance, they realized that i am
still in recovery but Lambeth council don’t seem to be sympathetic to my needs. I have bid on
property’s and not had much success,now out of the blue i got a final offer letter on the 30Th
of April. I had to see a property today in Hern Hill, it was very small not much light coming in and the main window in the front room had a pointed roof top right in front of it and no space
to keep my cat so she could come in and out. I found it hard to turn down as i feel I’m being forced to take something that’s not right for me. I know that i have too move but coming from
where i live right now which is not perfect but it has been my home for so long i don’t want my recovery affected by me having to move into unsuitable accommodation, can you help me?

I am really in need of your help, I was at my court hearing this after noon and it still stands that i will be evicted. They still said the flat they offered to me was acceptable, So i am to be evicted very soon is there anything you can do for me ? I am still in recovery just about this has very stressful i am on allot of medication and on a high dose of antidepressants to help me get through most days.All i wont is to be placed in a reasonable flat!! I am quite happy to leave 13 lillieshall road all i wont is security my own council place that’s not to much to ask, I feel like my life is going backwards instead of forwards all the hard work on myself seems to be slipping away im at the end of my tether PLEASE HELP ME!!!
