The majority of posts on here recently seem to be about LCWRA, so there are many people getting it.

Have you read the list of criteria on the link above to see which ones would be appropriate for you? Coping with change, coping with social engagement and hazard awareness can all be affected by mental health problems for example.

OP posted in January that they were in receipt of LCWRA. So I'm unsure what help they need here.

I’ve been asked to do a reassessment. Last time I filled one out was years ago so don’t know what to expect

The forms and questions haven't changed for years. Do you remember how you qualified for LCWRA last time?

Just answer the questions to the best of your ability in describing how your conditions affect you. If you received LCWRA last time you described your conditions then you should qualify again this time if nothing has improved.
