I went through one if the most traumatic 1 1/2 hours of my life on Friday 28 September, I came out feeling very traumertised and it has made my anxiety far worse and my mental  has plummeted to new lows.
I received a letter today telling me I would not be getting PIP quote’I did not appear anxious or worried’ despite the fact that I couldnt even wait in the waiting area and was told by the assesor I had done really well considering my levels of anxiety. Don’t know where to turn really am am concerned this will effect my ESA claim for which i am in the support group.
I woukd appreciate any advice 
thank you 
Annie

    We are not treated like humans!
    To them we are not worthy of common care dignity & a right do a resonable life
    They would rather we just curled up & die!!

    They don't make it easy
    You have to fight.
    I know it's not easy
    Try getting Citizens Advice on board to stand up for you

    Those interviews are so unfair for people with mental health issues are you going for a mandatory reconcideration and try to get them to court ? its all so bad went to see my local mp as been fighting for months with DWP he wasnt happy with the assessors they scored me nil but the court gave me enhanced for both ...keep keep fighting i know its difficult but good luck
