Hi there,
I'm wondering if there's anyone with recent experience of early retirement due to ill health from the HSE. How difficult was it to go through the process and if there's any tips on how to navigate it? Would I need help from a pension adviser or is it something I can do myself?
I've been cocooning from work since the start of the pandemic and now due to vaccination status am doing a 2 day week as per occupational health guidelines. It's quite difficult due to lots of various symptoms and most weeks are a real struggle.
I'm considering going to my GP and taking time out but realistically my disease is progressive and I can't see a time when things will get easier.
Any help would be greatly appreciated.
