confused about DLA claim guides. was created by mothernurture
Hi, ive just joined the site to get help with filling in a DLA claim form. Ive been ill for 3 years but only just realised i qualify. My confusion is this; I have M.E but have also developed Agoraphobia as a result of this, so i have both a physical and mental health basis for my application.The guides to download are for one or the other do io need to read all of it and sort of muddle through (i have a lot of cognitive problems due to the M.E) I spotted a dual application guide and thought that was for me but when i read it it was all about drug or alcohol dependancy so not relevant to me.
Any ideas? sorry if its obvious but my brain doesnt work well at the best of times
Thanks MN.

I'm afraid that if you have both physical and mental problems, you do need to get help from both guides.

If you're not sure how to answer any questions on your DLA form because of having both sorts of problem, just add extra pages at the end with the information on them. Don't forget to put your name and national insurance number at the top of each page and to number the pages.
