    Hi,

    If you were discharged by the mental health team in the future then this should not affect any future PIP reviews. Just because a person doesn't receive any treatment or support it doesn't mean their condition has changed or improved. 2023 is a long way off, try not to worry too much about that right now, easier said than done i know.
