A woman with a chronic pain condition has said she is being forced to choose between love & affording to live due to benefit restrictions.

@newstephie #AltText4You:
"BBC News headline reading "'I'm forced to choose love or disability benefit'" with a picture of a woman below and the caption 'Rose Kindred said the system forced disabled people "to choose between the security of living and love"'."

@newstephie omg this is exactly how disability benefits work in the U.S.
