I know it’s so bad how they can say your not suffering over a phone call, she said I’m ok n didn’t sound out ov breathe over the phone because I’m on medication I’m stable oh really don’t think any ov them have suffered with mental health clearly it’s so frustrating so because she said I’m fine over an hour phone call that’s it ,think I’m going to ring the doctor in the morning just don’t no wot to say to her x.So are you not doing a m r …I definitely would x0

Defo ring hun even if it’s just for a chat. My medication got increased today. All this stress is no good. The assessor on the phone said cause I drive an automatic car I have good stench I switched to automatic because the clutch was too much for me ?♀️ ****0

Hi @jules10 and @natasha1776
I’ve also got mental health problems and applied mainly on that basis. Got rejected in 2019 (0 points on all), I didn’t even bother doing an MR at that time. Applied again in June 2020, had my telephone assessment, again 0 points! Submitted an MR early April, and I’ve been told that they’ve awarded me ‘something’. They’ll let me know tomorrow what exactly they’ve awarded me but just wanted to tell you that dont lose hope. I know how it feels, I myself gave up last time and almost gave up this time. These people don’t know what we go through, you really have to persist and spell it out for them! Best of luck to you both1
