So I had a work capability assessment for esa on Friday I was very stressed about it.
It lasted a whole 17 mins and I barely got a chance to explain anything and that I wanted to. Now feeling like I didn’t say anything I wanted to. I did explain fully on the forms.
weirdly the assessor referred to something on a past form. I guess at least they read it and back history.
the assessor was pleasant and asked a handful of questions and ended it to my surprise. Usually lasts about an hour from past ones.
Now the painful wait. It’s really a nightmare doing this.
Not sure how long the wait is at the moment.
Been difficult recently not 6 months ago I had my pips assessment although difference very similar in assessment I found. I was hoping they could use that in my mind.
A friend of mine claims both pips and esa but recently failed an esa assessment and was shocking found fit for work (not the case) although if he could he would. How on earth is that possible to pass pips and fail esa not sure if that is common. He’s not appealing that.
hoping that doesn’t happen in my case.
Anyway just a little or a lot worn down with this whole process which has been going on months. It sits on the mind niggling away. Found it hard to take my mind off the whole thing.
Hope everyone is doing well with whatever the struggle is!
