You should do the second two things irrespective of the first, and take solace in having got carer's allowance despite the bastards.

Ugh gently caress sorry to e/n but the chemist must have hosed up somewhere because I have run right out of my anxiety meds and have distinctly not got the usual message about my repeat being ready to pick up. In a bad way now.

La-Li-Lu-Le-Lo

I was on JSA a few years ago, had to show evidence I applied for 20 jobs a week and log various activity. I was applying for most of my jobs via the universal job match website, but found out after nearly a year that if you had sent an application via that site (which they encouraged you to do), your CV was set as private and it didn't show to the business you were applying to. I was loving furious when I found that out as I had wasted so much time applying to something like 1000+ jobs that went nowhere.

More recently I tried to apply to UC though my partner has a FT job so I was only eligible for something like £3 a week, whilst going to the job centre in the next town cost me over £4 in bus fare to get there. I also signed up using this Royal Mail facial recognition software and within a few weeks had a bailiff letter through my door for an unpaid bill at a previous address - I'm still convinced they passed my data on to the bailiffs and been waiting over 3 months for a GDPR request, though I'm not that eager to chase in case there's other stuff I don't know about and I get sent to future prison.

So yeah, gently caress em.

Hey, this happened to me this week too (?) - I went back to my GP and the reception desk managed to find another pharmacy that had what I need, they sent it back to 'the spine' (some main hub apparently) and they sent it to my local pharmacy the day after. Good luck though, hope it works out soon and is manageable.

gently caress that sucks, i loving hate it when they gently caress up even the simplest instructions. i seriously thought about sending a list of "HERE'S THE DATES MY PRESCRIPTIONS NEED CREATED - please note i will always need them and i can start seizing if i don't get them if i'm unlucky and lose my mind regardless:" - i have complained on multiple occasions and it eventually helped, but christ.

i'm really sorry to hear that and i hope it gets sorted. you'll get through it, we always do, even when it sucks the whole time.

Failing that the pharmacist might be able to give you another packet if you explain the problem? Presumably they have your repeat prescription on file?

this website says nhs 111 is what you need for emergency medication:

https://www.nhs.uk/using-the-nhs/nhs-services/urgent-and-emergency-care/nhs-111/

quote:

How NHS 111 works

You answer questions about your symptoms on the website, or by speaking to a fully trained adviser on the phone.

You can ask for a translator if you need one.

Depending on the situation you’ll:

find out what local service can help you
be connected to a nurse, emergency dentist, pharmacist or GP
get a face-to-face appointment if you need one
be told how to get any medicine you need
get self-care advice

i'm hesitant to suggest what i know would work, mostly because it can be very trust specific. but here if it's after 5 either 111 or whatever the equivalent of the single point of access line - 111 should be able to tell you where to go.

e: oh thank goodness it's not necessary, well if any lurkers need it it's good advice.

I can't see this atm, what is happening and how well is Corbyn doing?

See I am sort of on Sertraline, but it doesn't seem to do too much.

Quick question folks, other than going to the gym in order to crush capitalism between my hands, what else do you think would be good things to do to improve on oneself? I'm talking like things for making people better as people. I know one is "shutting up and listening" so I am doing more of that.

Wait you call them chemist not pharmacist? I work with a pharmacist that got his education in the UK and lived there for the better part of a decade and he never once used that term.

Also I dont know if the UK has a drug shortages/recalls website run by the government like we do in Canada, but its worth looking up to see if that is the reason.

When this happened to me, the pharmacist gave me details to call for an emergency repeat prescription. If it happens again, they should have details on hand.

Also, if you ever need beta blockers I have spares
