DLA Claim was created by jimbo57
I am in the process of renewing my claim form for DLA but need a bit of help with the question of getting around outdoors .

My problem is that I often stumble when i'm walking in unfamiliar places but i don't know why, it just happens. How do I explain this on the form? It is not a physical problem but goes back to when I first suffered from OCD. Not sure what the connection is but thats when it started to happen.

Any suggestions on how to describe this on the form please?

Thank you.

All I can suggest is be honest, explain how often this affects you when you go out, how long it lasts, does it happen after a certain distance or time, is it particular surfaces or all, is there any trigger event like crossing a road.
