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.

  • Lee, Thank you very much for replying to me...

    Living with ASD is a nightmare, it's like we are born to fight with the society and the benefit system. My PIP assessor has no knowleadge with ASD, I have asked her what is her background and she replied in a rude maner that "DWP has certified me to be an Assessor".  She was not even paying attention to what I was telling her and she was just typing something in the laptop! As I peaked, she turn the laptop the opposite way so I do not see what she is typing up!.

    Anyway, It would be good if the AUTISM.org.uk takes some action with PIP because they are bullying us and putting us in a disadvanage and causing us mental pressre and stress!

    Logically, we all should be awareded the enhance rate for both daily living and mobility. We all stuggle mostly in the same way especially in a social place such as going into the City Centre where that are too many poeple around. I just have a panic attack and I become very light headed. I feel like all eyes are on me and I walk with shaky unbalanced legs!
