New claim after not returning ESA50

So, this is what I plan to write to them anyway:

I would like to give a statement as to why I did not return the ESA50 that was sent to me when I last made a claim on 29/09/14:

At the time I made this claim for ESA I was suffering for Plantar Fasciitis, a condition in which the tissues in the foot swell up and make it very hard to walk. I had spent a week where I could not walk and visited my GP to ask for a sick note. At the time I had recently lost my job and was another job; I knew that in this state I could not go to interviews or attend the job centre, so I claimed ESA.

By the time the sick note had run out and I received a letter reminding me to send in the completed ESA50, I was feeling much better, although I still had not found work. On the 1st December 2014 I claimed JSA because I had run out of money to support myself.

Because of my Asperger Syndrome and ADHD, my mental health is quite fragile and during the process of looking for work I received many rejections, being on JSA only made this worse because of the pressure I was under to look for work. Although I found a job which started on 13th January 2015, I lasted 5 days in this position and I immediately began feeling very depressed and anxious about the future, knowing that I would not be able to return to JSA having left my job voluntarily. I have been seen by a number of mental health professionals in the past 2 weeks, all of whom were very concerned that I had distinct plans to end my life; I have been visited regularly by the home treatment team.

I still feel very depressed and I feel that I need time and help to resolve the problems that have regularly occurred while I have been working. I am currently under the supervision of the local Community Mental Health Team who have a plan to try to help me over the next few months. At the present time I feel that trying to look for jobs and get back into work would make the situation worse and potentially cause me to further consider taking my life.

Thanks for your help.

Seth, you have a typo in the 2nd para -

"At the time I had recently lost my job and was another job"

You might want to correct that before you submit your statement.

I wish you good luck with your claim.
