So I have dug a twenty four foot ditch!

Deep enough for three graves and I can't quite take the leap! Actually I believe that my psychiatrists are genuinely noble human beings trying to do their level best for their patients. But the recipe is simple. If you want to integrate people into Society don't expect them to have to "walk the pank" in the "real world" and paddle up hill against the hostility because it doesn't work most of the time. Give them work and dignity and keep them occupied and you would halve their fears and anxieties and perhaps the crime rate at the same time. I spent years training for work getting A's and B+'s but knowing that the gossip was hostile and being discouraged from even applying for work. The only work I did get was in retail on minimum wage and only working half weeks I was getting less than on the benefit. And when the rules of beneficiary employ discourage people from finding work and take away the reward for effort the System is breeding long term unemployed.
