I just had a very long Phone pip assessment 2 1/2 hours. Very stressful.. Not sure if length of assessment is a good sign or not.

    The length of your assessment isn’t any indication. You should expect a decision within 12 weeks.

    Hi @Patsymittens. Welcome to Scope's forum. It is great to see you have joined us. How are you at the moment, other than the stress? 

    You have done so well reaching out to us. I appreciate how much courage it can take to reach out, especially when you are new and finding things difficult.

    I can see @bg844 has already responded to your thread. Adding to this though, I am wondering if there's anything that might help to reduce the stress.

    We are all here for you and listening to you if you would like to share more with us. Wishing you the best of luck with this.

    Please don't hesitate to let us know if there's anything else we can do to support you. You don't have to face this, or anything else, alone if you don't want to.

    Take care for now and we will look forward to, hopefully, hearing from you again soon  :)
