Hi, I have recently been diagnosed with ASC as I have struggled for as long as I can remember with just being me. I don’t know what I’m doing to be honest, I just thought joining might help me in some way, I have been told several times to apply for pip, and finally got the outcome back this week, zero points, has anyone any advice please? Or even just to say what I have said here is ok? Thank you
I have found that connecting with people who have similarities to me has been very helpful. The people here are inclined to be helpful and non-judgmental, which is pleasant. From what I have gathered, your PIP experience is quite standard and appealing the decision seems to be almost mandatory in order to receive any support.
Thanks for your reply Martin, if I’m honest I don’t really cope well with other people in general but find online a bit easier.I have been worried sick over the outcome for pip because I was cautious from the start, it was my support worker that suggested I do so, I knew this would happen, but it just makes me ill rethinking it 24/7
