    People being on benefits maybe.

    I’ve had occasion in my life to spend some time around people who are on benefits because of mental health and drug abuse, and some of those persons were a nightmare to deal with, and absolutely affected my life negatively. Many conditions that put people on benefits also make them very unpleasant to be around. The key is to understand that they would still be difficult to deal with if they weren’t on benefits, and desperation would only make them more of a nuisance.
