Hi, I'm new to this site but wandered if anyone could give me some advice... I made a claim for pip on 3rd March due to facet joint arthropathy in my cervical spine (diseased joints) and also for my anxiety and depressions. I had my assessment with Atos on 16th June. I received a letter from DWP last Saturday 8th July, which was dated 3rd July, saying that they had received all of the information they needed and would contact me soon with a decision regarding my claim. It's now 17th July and still not a word??! The thing is that the more I have to wait the more stressed and anxious I'm getting and this makes the pain so much worse but I cannot stop overthinking. Has anyone had a similar experience who can offer advice? I'm so stressed that I can hardly function now and I just want to know what the decision is? This doesn't seem fair at all...
I'm afraid that there are considerable delays in the PIP assessment process at the moment, members are waiting 10-12 weeks as a minimum to hear about a face to face appointment.
