Will they do another paper-based assessment?

Hi everyone I am new to this so be gentle please.
i received a letter today from PIP saying following changes to the new pip law my claim has not been affected. and I will still receive the same amount of PIP as it’s not been affected, I called them up to confirm this for reassurance they said I’m ok and my claim is not affected in anyway. my claim is till March 15th 2021. I had a paper based assessment as with my ADHD / Special needs, Severe Paranoia I can’t go to assessments as I will end up smashing the place up and there computers, so my doctors gives me a private letter to tell them the dangers, when they come to deciding it again will they just do another paper based assessment? my doctor said she will write one advising them to do a paper based assessment. surely they wouldn’t want me to go to one based on the dangers. she said she will do one closer to the time. my condition is still the same and struggle keeping jobs. working part time at the moment. thanks all.

she also said closer to the time just send it all off again. with new evidence ( if you have any ). once again thanks for replying fast it means a lot to me !
i was worried that my money was going to go down because of following a journey ect. I thought that was affected or am I wrong? DWP said your later states you are not affected and you will receive the full amount.
is it worth sending any documents off now or do it closer to the time?
I only called up as I was worried when I received the letter. but they said it’s not affected so did the letter. some people have been getting back dated whys that? am assuming the changed in PIP law. I didn’t get any but I probably wasn’t entitled to anymore. once again thanks for the speedy replies.
Your correct we only do hear the bad stories. I’m not going to do anything till next year as they have already said you have ages off yet September/ October time.
Out of interest ( I forgot ), what assessment provider does PIP use? any ideas. was going to google it but seems pointless as you no your stuff. thanks.
One thing that frustrates me is the people that “play the system” and don’t need it get everything. so to ramble on just frustrates me and probably loads of other people.
