Hi,Whether you're entitled will depend on how your conditions affect you against the 12 activities. It's not about a diagnosis. I wouldn't advise using the PIP self test linked above unless you fully understand the PIP descriptors and criteria, few people do. It's very unreliable and it's easy to either underscore and overscore yourself.A good place to start would be here. https://pipinfo.net/It can take about 10 months from applying to having a decision so not a fast turn around.
