Hi guys, I'm Alyssa. I suffer from a condition that causes me to black out frequently, meaning i'm not allowed to drive, operate machinery, cook using the stove by myself. I also struggle with chronic pain from the same condition, leaving me struggling to walk. Long story short, I was found not to be safe in a working environment of any sort.
Usually, this decision comes with financial help from the government, but as I live with a partner who works full time, they have stated I MUST live on his income alone.
(around 1100 a month after taxes) I'll break down expenses for you all.
525 in rent.
100 in electricity (we have an apartment that as a safety feature doesn't have gas.)
60 Internet/TV
60 for Insurance (Motorbike-his)
110 Council Tax
60 repayment of a loan from his gran who's helped us massively.
Then there is food, transport if I need to go out.
I'm baffled at how we'll make this work. At minimum, my partner wants me to be able to pay my half of our rent, which I deem fair as WE AREN'T MARRIED, therefore legally he has no requirement to take care of me and could have cast me out if this was his prerogative.
I need to find 272.50 minimal, each month.
Any ideas? Any planning/advice?
Merry Christmas, all.
