PIP Claim was Disallowed.

Delighted

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.

  • In the assessment, she assessor did tell me that If I am able to drive a car and I replied that "due to stress and anxiety, I failed driving test more than 20 times and I have been driving since 2009"  in the assessment, it was said that I can travel without an aid but I did tell her that as long as I have somebody with me otherwise I would not go due to feeling unsafe.

    This afternoon, I did get a call from PIP case manager as I have asked her to re-consider my claim and I told her that I will be doing this in writing and speaking to her made me unconfortable, I do find it more harder to express my feeling and thinking verbally so this will be done in writing in due course. She then explained that, in the document that was sent to me from PIP, I can then change / amend information if feel are in-correct and including the assessment report then this will be then passed to them to make another decission within the next 6-8 weeks. Nightmare!

    We do not choose to be disabled, it's not our choice. We are born with this condition and these people should stop harrasing and pressuring us as this will not remove our condition.  We are who were are and they should accept it and award us rather then having to face them and argue / fight. I see myself as a slave and begging them for money! I feel that low... When you see PIP and the government, they enjoy their lives, they have what they desire, nice cars, nice houses, shopping spree, holidays and we being the disadvange suffers.
