omr
Descriptor (f) of the Going Out activity is about the claimants ability to follow or navigate a route, you will score if there are reasons why you cannot navigate and complete the journey. Having anxiety will not in itself score, the anxiety would need to be so severe as to prevent you continuing to follow the route. Also, you must be able to leave the house in the first place to score.

Hi yes mine was on mental health; it was this week so early days to get the result through. I also paid for my medical records and showed them to the assessor. She read them and seemed to have a better understanding of my mh after reading them. If you can afford it and have time before your assessment i would reccomend to pay for yours uf they hold weight to your claim.
