I am currently receiving ESA in the support group..recently asked to complete another questionnaire for update and have been asked to go for a face to face end of February.
My query is I have an autistic son who is now in residential care but comes home weekends and holidays. Will I be penalised for caring for him when I get support group for depression and fibromyalgia? I can't sleep for worrying. I myself get support from my family when I have flare ups.

Please advise.
It is possible that an assessor will make assumptions about how you manage this, as long as you can explain how you do then it should not be an issue.
