    Good morning.

    Another sleepless night for me.

    The highlight of my day will be my neighbour taking me to do a bit of shopping.

    I hope you all manage to have as pleasant a day as you can.

    Annoying, I appear to have lost my phone, and it's the only way I can contact my family as they don't do emails.

    @Catherine21

    Sorry I only just seen your post.

    @Santosha12 is right.

    No one is going to force you into work.

    My advice is please stop watching things like YouTube regarding benefits and take a break from endlessly searching the internet for benefit related stuff because it seems to be making your anxiety so much worse.

    Try to focus on other things like watch some films or listen to music instead.

    Look after yourself and please take care.

    @Amberpearl

    Good luck with the pip form.

    When I did mine, I did small bits at a time over about a week to meet the deadline.

    I was actually relieved when I posted it even though waiting for the decision was constantly on my mind.

    Take care.

    @Amberpearl [Removed by moderator] pip is more flexible than esa.. i think.. but still write down…. feel all the spaces… and be as detailed as possible. i had some help with mine.. sometimes a second person who knows you could also give some feedback as you might forget some details…

    good luck with your pip.

    @Schildpad

    It's the renewal

    I need to add things on piece of paper as not enough room on the form

    I'm. Having to add the afib, pulmonary hypertension and the arthritis as well as my other health issues I'm. Already getting pip for

    I just hope adding these new conditions doesn't trigger a new fresh claim

    Guess I have to tell uc too re new condition s

    It's just I still don't have the holter monitor results

    That is actually a good thing… add more in folios… attached to the rest of the form.. add also the people who is treating you so they can talk to them if the have to. just be as detailed as possible.. but you will be ok.. but yes i hate filling in forms. in my case i just said conditions were getting worse.. it is a reassessment. if more conditions maybe the pip will go up. if already in pip , your pip will only be updated.

    Just finished my pip renewal form

    Took me over a week

    I've gone over it several times

    Hope it's acceptable

    I included copy of my meds

    It's now ready for posting

    Hope they can read my messy hand writing

    Well done on completing your PIP form @Amberpearl! I bet it was a relief. I worried about my handwriting too but I'm sure they'll contact you if there are any issues. Fingers crossed it's all ok though and you're awarded again.

    What are you doing to celebrate St Patrick's Day @luvpink?

    Well done on completing your form.

    I wish you well with the decision.

    That's a shame @Catherine21. Hopefully her replacement will be just as nice but I'm sure it'll take a little while to build up the trust again. Will you get to see her again before she goes?

    awful day but this seems to be the norm now. So exhausted now and going to try and get some sleep . Hoping tomorrow will be little better but doubt it!
