Hi M

If you have evidence that you are still owed money, and you can't face phoning the DWP, then you could put it in writing to them, sending copies of any letters you have.

Thanks for getting back to me I don't know whether it will make it worse for me as I had to send of my renewal form there in March my pip is up on 1st Feb and I've been diagnosed with another mental illness ubpd as well as severe depression and have took my my own life ended up in hospital and ended up back in hospital again with severe self harming and suicidal plus I was going threw a pic otic disorder stage for bout 8 months so I'm afraid making it difficult for myself when my assessment is up .also trying to push for mobility award as my mental illness is more serious now than what it was last time I can't associate or mix with other people I don't leave the house at all now do you think it would help my case if I asked doctor for my hospital reports I've been assessed by the mental health time 3 times from I was admitted to hospital or will they contact doctor the anyway just looking a second opinion .thanks m

Hi M

It won't make it worse for you as far as the DWP are concerned. You have to ask yourself - are you well enough to do this at the current time? It sounds like you have a lot on your plate, and it may be a good idea to wait until you have some support. But it's up to you.
