💨 Abstract

The author, a freelancer with fibromyalgia, endometriosis, and hypermobility, shares their experience with disability benefits in the UK. They initially applied for Access to Work in late 2017 due to the physical strain of commuting by Tube. Though approved, the government only covered £15 per trip, leading to extra costs and an increased overdraft.
