Placed in to support group ESA

After 4 weeks of nervousness i received the decision from DWP of my ATOS medical assessment for ESA i have been awarded ESA and placed in the Support Group no mention of how long or if i will be reassessed.This has been difficult for myself as my mental health is difficult to manage and i was sure i would be found fit for work .this site has been a great help as i couldn't get any help from anywhere else well worth the subscription ,i must be one of the small percentage who's actually got an increase in benefit.
I dont know whether i should ask for the desionmakers reason on what descriptors i met or if they will even tell me i can tell you i suffer from Rapid cycling bipolar disorder and i'm on Quetiapine 450mg / mirtazapine 45mg.
I hope this will be of help to others .

Well done, thank you for letting us know - and for your kind words about this site

You can phone DWP and ask for your 'prognosis' or you can write and ask for a copy of the ESA85, either way should give you a rough idea of when to expect reassessment.

That's really good to hear san, well done !!!

Thanks very much for the positive feedback.
