I am awaiting a decision on both pip and esa. I have bipolar disorder and have been unable to work for several years. Just been for a very distressing assessment for pip. Any advice or experience of similar would be so appreciated. I am sick with worry. I can't manage without these payments. No savings, financial support. HELP

Hello @dorisdog100 Pleased to meet you welcome.
Sorry to hear about your experience of a bad assessment.
Thank you for your question. To reassure you it is always best to wait for any decision first.
I know it is hard to wait and causing you anxiety.
Understand the anxiety and worry as many members have been through this.
Including myself.
All I can say is who is supporting you through this. Do you have a support worker to help you.? Giving you strategies and coping mechanisms to deal with this.
We are a supportive community. Friendly, care and share.
Please ask if we can help with anything.
Best wishes for a successful outcome and decision.
Take care
