Morning 
Hope all is well, my issue is that I have a telephone appeal, I would like if anyone has been through this before and do they ask a lot of questions because that's why I did not go in, because of my anxiety issues 
Thanks Elaine

    It depends on each individual case and everyone will be different. Some hearings last 10 minutes and others last up to an hour, sometimes longer. 

    They will totally understand your anxiety issues and if you need to take a short break you can ask them.Do you have someone that can be with you during the hearing?

    HMCTS are totally impartial to DWP and are usually very understanding.
