Hi, my name is bandwagon77!
I was asked about my education and then later, she asked could I read, when I'd already told her i went to college. She asked did I have any pets despite me saying about my severe asthma and being allergic to absolutely everything, including spider bites. I was on the phone over two hours and she rang early too which caught me off guard becsuse I'd only just that second got out of bed... talk about stressful. It's torturous and caused me over three weeks sleepless nights, overthinking and wanting to end my life at one point because I can't handle stress being autistic. Even my support worker couldn't make it for my phone interview because of the weather and I have no friends or family here in the UK. It was utterly terrifying. I can only sympathise with everyone else who goes through it. I felt violated by the end of the call because she knew more about me than my family x

Regards my review of my PIP after over three years of being in receipt of it. They wrote to ask of any changes. I heard from a friend there was a case in the newspaper Regards a gent who was on dialysis (as I, myself have too in the past). My friend said they employ all kinds from different backgrounds, including non medical backgrounds. This particular gent was denied pip on the first instance because the guy interviewing him did not know what dialysis was... just as our politicians are a bunch of incompetent muppets. Who knows? The mind boggles
