    Good morning @Lynney1612

    I am so sorry that you had such a horrible experience of your PIP assessment and that you felt you had to go through with it in such traumatic circumstances.  

    You can complain about how the assessment was carried  to the company that assessed you using the contact details on its website, however, it may be that this is not upper most in your mind at the moment. The assessment provider will be either:

    If you don’t know who assessed you, check your appointment letter or check the assessment company map on GOV.UK.

    You describe a situation which is a parent's worst nightmare and I will send a private email to you just to check in on you.  The email will come from the Scope online community so keep an eye out for it in your in box.  

    Take care

    Hi @lynney1612 :) How are you getting on today?

    I just wanted to let you know that I've removed a small part of your post, as it described a specific suicide method. You're not in any trouble, so please don't worry. We remove mentions of specific suicide and self harm methods to keep our members safe. 

    Please do take a look at that email from Sue when you get a chance. We'd like to help support you where we can :)
