Thanx a lot Alison. Just so ground down by it all. Think am gonna find it hard to relax tho. Keeps goin on and on in my head,'I forgot to tell them this, or I didn't really understand what they were asking me so did I not answer question right?' was pushed to talk about certain aspects of my mental health which I find extremely difficult to talk about, and again I could not look them in the face. It's like trying to talk to a a bloody automaton anyway. Jus sat there tap tap tap on that damned keyboard. Having to respond to question asked in such a matter of fact way with a matter of fact answer just did my head in. As I said tho one consolation was it was on time and only 25 mins max, unlike the trauma of Tue. Anyway thanx again and fingers crossed for ur appeal. Good luck and take care! :)

i felt excactly the same after my assessment for pip ,, was beating myself up afterwards thinking of things i should of said and didnt ,,if it any consolation i think personaly they seem to forget that people who have to go through this system are actualy unwell wether it be MH , or any other disabilities and to be asked question the way some do. and dont even give you a chance to answer the way ude like and there moving on to the next says enough , some lack compasion and makes me wonder how they ever got into any health proffesion to begin with, ,wouldnt be fair to say there all the same though as i was lucky enugh to have a lovely irish fella who did my esa one and was patient and understanding ,, uve got through this week and uve done brill in doing that alone, so be proud of urself that an acheivment in itself with the difficulties you have of even being able to go out , cause i know excactly what its like ,,well done !! :cheer:
alison, :)

Hello

Can I just check if I got this right? I cannot ask for copy of ESA85 until after I have received decision makers letter after my f2f. Thank you :)

Although we very occasionally see an exception, DWP offices will not provide any ESA reports until after the claimant has been notified of the Decision.
