New member saying "Hello".

Hello folks, Noah here, I just stumbled on this site having just had a PIP assessment and doing some research. I'm noticing some horror stories claiming for the benefit. I'm not holding out much luck, but would be good if I do get awarded, it would help a lot.
Anyway, have a good day everyone
Noah

Welcome @NAL24 😊
Lovely to have you here. There are lots of lovely and knowledgeable members here who will have experienced similar things to you and can offer their insight.
Try not to worry about the PIP assessment too much. I've been through it myself and it was tough but I reminded myself that it's a process that I need to go through to get some more support. I ended up at tribunal, which seems to happen to a lot of people, but you can have someone with you for support and you can do it via phone or video if you're not able to go in person. I did mine over video with my husband next to me 😊
