PIP Claim was Disallowed.

Hello, I am new to this forum and wanting some advice and support.

About me...I am 26 years old male with Asperger syndrome, I suffer from Depression, Asthma, High Blood Presssure, Anxiety, OCD.

After having my PIP assessment with Capita, she typed my medical information onto her computer and then off she went. I called PIP for an update with my claim and she told me that it was Disallowed. And, I have asked for a re-considilation.

I am in a stage where I just wished I am dead. I hate this life that I am living and I do not have the energy or the motivation to challenege this decisison. I have given them all my medcial notes and I have asked them to contact my Psychiatrist to get the details of my mental illness and they did not bother! My Psychartrist could not give them my information as the system been changed and written information from them would be requierd. Since, they did not contact them base on my mental illness then it would be there fault! Anyway, My GP covering letter does note that I am depressed, mental health history, depression medication, panic attacks / social anxiety and will need an aid of a family member to escourt me out as I feel unsafe. I cannot read people and understand their facial expressions.

I am on DLA lower rate...both care and mobility!

At the moment, I just want to overdose myself...I given them all the information and why did they refuse me. Now, my depresion is getting more worse.

  • I have just had my pip lowered from enhanced to standard care and no mobility from standard.  i have asked for a reconsideration but i doubt it will change i suspect they will disallow it altogether for asking for a reconsideration.  

    I have come acroos many cases the same mostly down to the assessor not having any asd experience, their argument is they are assessing how it effects you rather than questioning the diagnosis.  However without experience and understanding of asd i fail to see how you can assess anyones needs with asd in my opinion ??.

    I know how you feel i was feeling just the same so down and angry feel theirs no fight left, thing with asd you have to fight for everthing from living and getting through the day to been recognised as been asd.  It is a never ending battle, but we have to keep going its the system that is wrong and i believe it is that way purposely
