PIP Award Review - Help me please was created by autistictic
I am so upset and in so much distress because I get employment assistance with Community Links in my area, Adult Social Care funding towards developing my creative skills and meant to get two hours a week support funded, yet I have now just had my Employment Support Worker call in sick and the benefits advisor is apparently unavailable.

I am autistic and I have been taking antidepressants for anxiety and depression. I have been referred for mental health cognitive behavioural therapy again and I have no idea what to do with this form as its to difficult for me to decipher. There is so much information on it and the form is different from the one which I applied for.

I have a returning prescription slip for the SSRI's that I have been prescribed by my doctor and this form needs to be arrive this Saturday 16th December! I was expecting to see somebody and sit with them THIS WEEK about my PIP form. Please can somebody help me, application forms are really distressing.

I currently get the Standard Daily Living allowance but your website says I am entitled to the Enhanced element? I get nothing for mobility. I am really, really panicking that I cannot get this done in time.

Once again I have autism, I am only 28 years old but these forms are absolutely hell and I feel like they are deliberately designed to take things away from me.

We can't complete your PIP2 for you, we may be able to help you do it!

When does the form need to be returned by? You can request a two week extension if you need it

You may be able get help with the form, do an internet search for "welfare advice" with your postcode, town or county, also try any charities that specialise in your conditions.

In the meantime have a look at our PIP Claim guide for a better understanding of the criteria you need to meet.

If you have more questions then please reply to this post and we will do our best to help.
