a help with my PiP review

hello
never met them but 'west country community psychologists'
have a website article which helped me and my psychiatric consultant
about a PiP review & to get a fair and accurate assessment.
& i wrote 2 letters, with the consultant letter, over a whole year.
not keen on NHS psychologists, locally and their treatment
of people with mental health conditions and disabilities, at least mine,
but this lot read much better, and a community centre kept my morale up
and helped fill forms when i couldn't do lots of normal things by myself.
do think people with disabilities & in my case painfulness too,
need a recognition and an ethics of care, from wider community,
a patience.
