So worried about this change to pip ....anyone been successful....
Hi have u applied yet??
Just got my letter rang in and forms in the post
I received a letter last month saying I'm on dla for another 2yrs.. when your forms come get intouch with advocacy. .what ever u do dnt fill it out yourself .. that's the best chance of u getting pip . Do u still see a phyciatrist?
If you go to Citizens advice, they will help you fill it out and tell you the best way to go about it and be successful.
Have a CPN fortnightly or monthly depending on moods .....been on dla since 2009 ....unable to work
Thank you .....
I was never on DLA but straight on PIP got this for 2 years with Bi polar just waiting for my decision now dreading it they take forever shouldn't have to be like this, did you get it on DLA
You will be fine then no need to worry .. I think your cpn will be able to fill your forms in too 😊
Dif you have someone filling your forms in for you? How long have you been waiting?
Did them myself got a text 2 weeks ago saying it gone to the decision makers I haven't been for an assessment though to be honest its only about 7 weeks so that's not that long some people wait 6 months or more
Oh my really. Well good luck I hope your successful 😊when you.d apply for dla it got back dated .. bt I believe pip doesn't do that 😕
Don't really know about that either.
Had DLA SINCE 2009..............This carry on with the PIP IS MAKING ME EXTREMELY LOW ..........
Really mags don't worry.. a couple of months ago it came on my fb from the government I read people's comments n it made me really ill so I no where ur coming from.. I got intouch with advocacy after the weekend who told me not to worry at all. Then my hv came round she sees lots of women with mental health problems she said alot of them arnt seeing any help & still got pip ..so try & put it at the back of your mind .. get intouch with your cpn tell her it's making you really ill & anxious .. I'm sure she will be able to do your forms & right a note with it ..
its awful trying to switch off ...only did the phone call yesterday for the forms ....depressive ..anxiety ..........made an oppointment with my CPN for the 3rd .........Advocacy .....i,ve googled it but unsure what you mean and who .............thanks for your support to a total stranger ........
Yer I no what u mean it was the longest weekend of my life with ni sleep worrying waiting for Monday morning to ring them.. u don't need to worry about advocacy with having a cpn. There just like cit advice people bt it makes a big difference having someone professional filling the forms . No problem I'm glad to help..I no how much its unsettling. . My dla runs my car if I didn't get it then I'd never leave the house. .. let me no how u get on 😊
Thanks ... i understand the never leaving the house ............if i could live my life indoors i would .................do you work ....personal, but i feel i,m the only person in the world suffering ...glad i came across this site ...helping me so much ......
Iv worked all my life .. say the past 1 5yrs in the same place ..just a local take away .. when I'm ill they have an understanding. .but it changed hands &;new staff came in.. young 1s are very lazy want to be your favourite ect.. I'm not like that I go to work for peace of mind to stop me becoming a full time recluse. . Well I got sacked for bullying over a year ago.. couldn't believe it . I went down hill from there & dnt leave the house now unless I really have too ..& then il cancel appointments because I feel I cnt leave ..
it does help alot this site..I found it by accident because of how I'll mirtazapine was making me ..
Sorry to jump in, just wondered on what happend with your Mirtazapine and what you now take? I tried to come off it but started to feel ill when doing so.... The recluse thing really is a problem when there is nothing to do, there is a really good volunteering site where you get to do what interests you. Its kinda nerve racking getting back to civilisation, but you just sink lower staying in....just seeing if I can find the name of that site...
