good to look down to the floor and try to avoid eye contact. Totally agree. But you have to remember to make occasional eye contact and then swivel your eyeballs around and around. Possibly helps if you suddenly stand up from time to time and wave your arms about. Muttering about aliens under your breath of course. PS I will desist from my flippant remarks That would definitely help

The people who posted that they made it on the first attempt don't appear to have voted.

Surely they couldn't knock you back if you were standing up waving your arms about, whilst swiveling your eyeballs around in your big hat and shirt with tomato sauce on it, and muttering about aliens under your breath as you were making flippant remarks.

There is a fine line between pleasure and pain. You have to be careful you are not sectioned. Having the evidence to prove your disability helps. But I would add some mayonnaise and Vegemite.

Back in around 2001 I applied for and was granted first time the DSP at around 16 years of age on the advice of a social worker at centrelink due to me always taking in 3 monthly medical certificates and perhaps having been constantly slashing up might have been her reason. I was on youth allowance single away from parents payment from about 14 years and 9 months. After a few years in human services care I found a job in a call centre and worked full time for a few years and then went back on the pension after having a mental break down at the end of 2010 as I had just separated from my Thai wife who I had brought to Australia and who left me for dead in Thailand.
I kept going to the Philippines for a few years after that for 3 months at a time and then found a casual job and was working between 15-30 hours a week for around a year and a half I then landed back in hospital for not being able to cope anymore and then applied for and was granted UP in 2014 on the advice of my community mental health nurse who wrote a letter to support my application saying it would be highly beneficial for me to make a permanent move to the Philippines to be with my partner who provides great support. But at the moment I am still stuck in Australia until July as I am on probation for threating to burn down my rental house shortly after applying for UP and serious obstruction of police mainly due to all the stress with applying for UP and not coping well with it and luckily no conviction was recorded. Come July I am free to do what i want and am still under 30 years old.

The poll cannot be moderated, I may close it while the OP decides what he wants to do.
