I'm owe the council £1175. That's due to being in jail for longer last year than I was supposed to be. The housing benefit only covered me for 13 weeks. My mother paid in money to keep me going in jail and she will want that back eventually too.

I got jailed for 70 days in August, for contacting former support workers that have restraining orders against me. I never even said anything bad, and the court is already corrupt, so that isn't helpful. They didn't want to work with me any more due to them finding out I had a soft spot for them. They developed a nasty attitude and I was very stung by all of the lying and I felt betrayed. After so long, the boss also tricked me into signing away my tenancy in one of their supported flats. Before I was jailed last year, I had been remanded several times in the past.

I ended up going back to court while I was serving my first sentence, in regards to not doing unpaid work, but that was to do with a matter not related to the first jail term. Now, I got medical evidence to state that I was not fit for it, but the judge gave me a concurrent sentence, so I was locked up until December. Later on, on the day I was to be let out, the cops gate arrested me to ask me about other stuff, then drove me home since they had no evidence or any confession.

I haven't even gotten my PIP reinstated yet. They close your claims for benefits in custody. I didn't know that was not linked to Universal Credit. Since then, my debt has gotten way worse, and this is due to companies asking for late payments, and it is a really depressing way to cap off this awful decade. Nothing about this decade has been that memorable for me, so I'll be glad when 2020 begins.

I don't even get support any longer either. Social services just fob me off. I think that's kind of illegal if you require support, and all they're doing is ignoring people.
