esa in student accom?

i’m struggling with depression and being alone is one of my biggest triggers, i’m thinking of potentially getting an esa to help, but i’m worried about what the student accommodation (student roost) will say. i have lived there for 2 years and they have no information readily available, and i don’t want to risk my accommodation in any way by speaking to them about it directly before i look into it more.

i’d like to know if anyone has any experience with this. i’m going to go to the gp and go through the process properly, i just didn’t want to be disappointed at the end of it or have to move since i really like my accommodation.

Hey! could you elaborate on what you mean by ESA? Id assume it was employment and support allowance but it doesn't fully fit the context of what you're describing, let me know :smile:
