Hello everyone my Name is Yase

I am really worried about how to deal with the new pip rules as I suffer from extreme anxiety, chronic depression & back and chest pain after cancer mastectomy and related treatment chemotherapy and radiotherapy. I don't know how to prove this apart of my medicine. I have no problem with taking care of my body. M. My problem is I am afraid of going outside home and prefer to be alone in my world....

    Hi,

    Please be aware the new rules are not coming in for at least 18 months.

    The Mobility component of PIP will not be affected. So if you currently get Standard Mobility for being housebound, that should continue.

    If you don't have any Daily Living needs then that will be an issue. Though from the conditions you've listed, I suspect you probably do have some DL needs. Do you currently get a Daily Living award?
