Hi its me again🙉 sorry 
I had my renewal video assesment yesterday and have been thinking about it today one of the questions asked was how far i could walk then what about uneven surfaces and hills i feel she was trying to catch me out 
To finish off she asked me if i worked i said yes only part time again i felt this has gone against me as i said i didnt go far due to my anxiety but i literally go to work only 2 days and then straight back home i feel all this has gone sgainst me and me made very upset and anxious

    They often ask the question about working, although PIP isn't about your ability to work. If the work you do contradicts the reasons why you're claiming PIP then it can go against you. I'm not saying this is what will happen because i don't know anything about your conditions, how they affect you or the work you do. Lots of people claim PIP and work.
    For the question about how far you can walk this won't apply if you're claiming for mental health conditions. If you're claiming for physical conditions then hills are not taking into consideration. It's falt surfaces outside, which include pavements.
    I know it's difficult but try to focus on something else.
