help

I am a single mom, 24, diagnosed with ASD when I was a teen. my daughter is almost 2. since having her I have not been able to adjust into a routine and things keep getting worse and worse. im exhausted every day and its always a mess and I hate my life. I applied for PIP in October last year and I had to appeal and its currently going to tribunal as im being gaslit into thinking that my struggles do not meet the criteria. Has anyone experienced similar? Can anyone offer any help or advice please?

  • I went through something similar when I applied for PIP, I found someone very helpful at citizens advice, I was able to add them to my case as an advocate. I also took someone with me to the tribunal hearing, which made me a bit less anxious.

    I was awarded standard amount both for daily living and mobility, so I felt that my difficulties had been recognised by attending a face to face meeting.

    Good luck with your PIP journey.
