Need some advice (“,)

good afternoon all (“,)
hope you are all well
i recently applied for PIP. Iv had my face to face assessment and the lady was so lovely, tho I’m scared to trust her after so many bad stories.
i had a 2 level ACDF in February and I have been in a very bad way since . I have became a bit of a recluse and also very very depressed. Before my op I was very outgoing and confident it now a completely different person. I’m 34 and was wondering if any of you think I have a chance at being awarded PIP . My anxiety is through the roof at the minute and I don’t sleep. How long do you usually have to wait for a decision??i have a full time job to go back to but at the minute I’m scared to leave the house and I’m afraid of loosing my job and home I have a 9 year old son who is just the best he helps me so much but he’s far to young to have to do so much.
sorry for moaning but I can’t talk to people anymore face to face my scar is horrible across my throat and it embarrasses me. My mum told me to try an online forum to see if it would help.
Thank you for reading (“,)
