    Hello @vijay thanks for your post, I'm really sorry to hear about the outcome of your Mandatory Reconsideration, I can understand how fed up you're feeling. I hope the community can help support you.

    It's positive to hear that you want to keep fighting, and I can encourage you to have a read on the Turn2Us website, for guidance on challenging a PIP decision at this stage.

    You might also like to search on Advice Local for a professional adviser local to you, who can help see if you have a case for a successful tribunal appeal. 

    If you'd like to talk to one of Scope's advisers, you can also contact the Scope Helpline if you prefer.

    I'm sorry to hear that you've been struggling to sleep, and are having a tough time with your mental health. Is this something you feel you're getting enough support with currently, from your GP for example?

    Before taking the next steps with PIP, it's really important you take the time to process what's happened and to support your mental health. If you need to, you can:

    Let us know if you feel we can help with anything further, remember you're not alone here on the community :)

    It's not a court because no one is on trial at any Tribunal. Some hearings if face to face are in a court building but definitely not a court.
    I do agree though that many people that have to challenge a decision time and time again is likely because of poorly completed claim packs.
