I don't personally help anyone other than to advise on the forum because i simply don't have time in which to do that. I know scope don't help with that. All i can do is advise you.

When filling out the form you should put as much information as possible about how your conditions affect you. Include a couple of real world examples for each descriptor that applies. Include detailed information such as where you were, what exactly happened, did anyone see it and what the consequences were.

It will help to have a look at the descriptors to see which one (if any) you think applies to you. For extra money in your UC you will need to be found to have LCWRA and you can see the descriptors here. https://www.benefitsandwork.co.uk/universal-credit-uc/uc-faq/limited-capability-for-work-related-activity

For LCW descriptors are here. https://www.benefitsandwork.co.uk/universal-credit-uc/uc-faq/limited-capability-for-work

There's also a guide here that you can look at. It says ESA but the forms are identical. https://www.citizensadvice.org.uk/benefits/sick-or-disabled-people-and-carers/employment-and-support-allowance/help-with-your-esa-claim/fill-in-form-esa/

You can also get some help from an agency near you. This link will tell you what is local to you. https://advicelocal.uk/
