Hi @nails - welcome to the community. I'm sorry to read about your struggles, but you do seem to have an understanding & sympathetic work coach. I hope you get somewhere with your MR. You'll also find everyone here most supportive.

Hello @nails
I’m so sorry about your younger brother, my condolences. I hope your mum is doing well with her diagnosis. Can I ask, have you both got support around you? I wanted to leave a link for the NHS Bereavement and Grief services just in case either of you feel the need to talk to someone.
I would encourage you to reach out to Citizen’s Advice with the MR for your PIP and your LCWRA. They can be such a support for you, and they even have information pages about the process. If you would like to read up beforehand.
I do hope you hear about therapy and your assessments soon. Did you know you can refer yourself to NHS talking therapies? That may be an avenue to get you seen quicker?
Please keep us updated and I hope the community can be a place of support for you. I also hope that your business continues to thrive. Can I ask what it is you do?
