I am 58 ,asm live alone. I had to apply for PIP having been on DLA. Just got the report if the assessors - lies and baseless assumptions. I am Autistic, have severe anxiety and depression, agoraphobia and bad arthritis. I have no support worker despite often seeking one and now the CAB etc is closed. Was told on the phone I have been turned down for PIP. In absolute terror now.
She said I have a bath. I told her all I can do is kneel beside it to wash my hair!
I know a lot of people are treated this way but it hurts and now I am in terror.

16% success rate so expect to go to appeal.
Forget about what the assessor did or did not say and concentrate on what your case is. What points and why? Don’t write pages. Keep it simple and focused.
