He is under the mental health team and doctor should i do the tribunal if so any tips. This is very stressful like your being made to be a liar when all notes are on the doctors file ect. Do i give up or try to fight it for him many thanks all for reading

    Dont give up thats exactly what they want even though stressful upsetting and your time should be for your son  not chasing after DWP lack of profession unhuman behaviour and how low they will stoop even liying they should be in front of tribunaral as they are the ones who are employed by Government and lie to the courts its not you in wrong its them and this needs to be stoped I won my tribunal last Aug 15th and still waiting for backpayment all they do is pass you from department to department its enough to make you go comlptety over the edge even though it's extremely distressing keep going Don't let what you cannot do interfere with what you can do be a voice

    Hi @daybeliever740 thank you its so harsh really is its made my son feel so down like hes lieing. They need to employee people that have knowledge and unterstanding of conditions so frustrating. Ahhh excellent that you won your. Was it very in your face moment and worrying. I m not to sure how my son will cope in that kind of situation to be honest altho universal credits asked me to be his appointee so all paper work even for pip comes in my name. Hope your not waiting to long
