You sound like a good person and should be admired for your inner strength. It's very sad and unfortunate that you are suffering such financial hardship, but at least you receive a regular allowance of sorts.
Before the 1970's there were NO benefits, and people like yourself, were forced to live on charity from welfare organisations like the Salvation Army, because there was NOTHING else.
Many people who could not look after themselves, financially, were placed in "homes" with NEVER having any opportunity to ever live independent lives!
Would those times be better than now?
