Attendance Allowance tribunal help

Mollysocks

Hi guys I'm trying to help my neighbour who suffers from anxiety, linked to her breathing issues, and in her claim for Attendance Allowance the DWP state that her attacks are " unpleasant, benign and self limiting "  Has anyone else had to argue that anxiety is far more?

AA isn't about the conditions itself. It's about the help, and/or care/supervision you need, even if you don't receive that help. You should concentrate on how her conditions affect her and the care/help she needs.

Does she have an award or been refused?

Hi Poppy123456, I am currently arguing the tribunal submission, of which that line is from the Decision makers reasons why her husband helping her in a panic attack isn't needed.
