PIP Question

Hello,

I had applied to PIP and know people on PIP who despite having severe mobility limitations still get rather harsh treatment when their award is challenged every few years or so.

I have found PIP is more aimed toward physical disability rather than mental health struggles/or people like us on that end of the spectrum -autism/ADHD etc.

Universal credit has been more useful for me. 

Asking Citizens advice for help to fill in a PIP application or to contest a decision is a very good idea and they can help you to word answers to help your case more.

Or could contact the national autistic society for guidance too.

Otherwise keep fighting it, seek out a support group in the real world if you can to ask for advice and support with PIP application.

Hi. Thanks. I have nothing else to do, it would help but its not the end of the World. Claiming UC means you are restricted to the amount you can earn or the hours you work, I don't think the PIP is but your abilty to work certainly affects how much you can earn and your living standards.
