I had my pip assessment and just couldn’t remember everything. By the end of the assessment I was sobbing In pain by the excersises I couldn’t do.
she was still asking me to move arm stretch it out, I was so distraught.
ive been laid up all weekend in pain crying,depressed, by how I feel and what I have to live with. It’s now 4.40 am and tears are streaming down my face knowing I have to go to work tomorrow and try to manage the pain and my ordeal. I understand they have to this, but I’m laid here thinking why after all we’re going through. I have arthritis in knees, back wrist, bone spurs in my foot, carpal tunnel and after that I think depression. Probably not as bad as some , which Im truly sincere. Just not sure how to deal with feeling so low and now the wait . Thanks

Hi @Rutg
Im sorry to hear you had such a bad time
If negative feelings and low moods don't go away, are too much for you to cope with, or are stopping you from carrying on with your normal life, you may need to make some changes and get some extra support.You can talk to your GP or call NHS 111. Your GP can discuss your symptoms with you and make a diagnosis. There is more information about low moods on the NHS website here.
