I reported change in my healt condition and they told me I will have a new assesment. My condition is worse as before so I am not afraid. Only thing what was change is about my work. I go to work 1-2 per week, but it is very hard for me. I do not wanna work but I have to because they can discharge me. Do I need to tell PIP that I am attending work? I am afraid they will think I am able to go so I am OK. Thank you for advice.

PIP has nothing to do with your ability to work. People claim PIP and work.0

Welcome to the community @jonesk94 Thank you for joining us!
As poppy123456 has said, PIP isn't about your ability to work, so I wouldn't worry too much. Does the work you do contradict the reasons for which you claim PIP?I do not wanna work but I have to because they can discharge meDo you mind me asking what you mean by this?1 -
Thank you. I have depression, anxiety and PTSD. Maybe is it contradict, but it is challenging for me to be in work for a whole day, sometimes I go earlier if is possible.0

I work and that’s what put me off applying for PIP initially as I thought they’d see that as me not being affected by my health conditions. However, they took into consideration the reasonable adjustments that my employer makes for me, how my conditions affect me in and out of work and awarded me PIP. Hope that helps.1
