Pip appeal denied!

I attended my pip appeal yesterday. I have been suffering with a physical and mental condition for many years and scored 0 points at appeal.
I was extremely distressed at the appeal centre, I had a panic attack with my mental health and very nearly didn't go. Because I was so distressed and with sheer exhaustion I couldn't take in what was happening around me. I couldn't stop crying and I found the whole ordeal like I was on trial.
The judge made me feel like a liar, I was on trial.
My representative was fantastic, he was furious at the 0 points award at appeal and has requested a statement of reasons and said he was definitely going to find a way to try appealing this decision.
I cant face a send hearing what I went through yesterday was horrendous and I was actually on the phone to the crisis team with the state of my mental health.
I feel I have lost out and cant face applying for pip ever again. The dwp have finally beaten me it took 2 years to get here and its completely floored me.
