Hi Gaynor,

The PIP guide explains what to expect on the day.

Whether to take a bag and/or a coat is clearly up to you! You should be able to sit down or stand and move around, whichever is best for you, in the waiting area and again in the room where the assessment is being held.

Nothing on this board constitutes legal advice - always consult a professional about specific problems

Hi gaynor
I have just had my second assessment yesterday it is a bit uncomfortable but you just have to make sure they let you explain your conditions so that when it comes to decision maker he will have all the facts of how your illnesses affect your daily life I personally didn't take a bag as they scrutinise every little movement so just remember you are telling them about you don't let them get away with not having your answer as to what you struggle with usually assessor are usually polite and appear like the are your best friends but they are not they are doing a job to see if this really does affect your daily life or not I have had two assessments now and also 1 tribunal hearing and it is physically and mentally draining at a time really that is your worst time of your life it is not easy to have to go through this telling them about your health problems and going over and Over it but this site does help you through some of the things you are dealing with and you have to. Fight for it just so they government don't win it is not a fair system and we all know that so keep fighting and any problems post on here and they will try and help
