DLA to PIP

Hi, I am a 57 year old man and been diagnosed with Aspergers seven years ago. I also have a severe mood disorder and I was wondering if anyone has had any trouble with the switch over to PIP.

I am due to be reassessed and I am not looking forward to it as some of the tales about the assessors and the way they go about their 'work'.

For the first time in a while I am thinking of shuffling off this mortal coil and I do not have the fight I once had but there are lots of people on the Autistic Spectrum who have little or no support and I worry that Autism is being downgraded from the lofty times of the Autism Bill.

Hot Air? Have we been duped by the politicians again? Should we expect better?

Your views would be welcome.
