    Hi @sara50

    I know it is a very stressful situation but you're not alone in this, many feel the same when a PIP review starts and it's completely valid to feel anxious about this. Talking helps and you’ve done the right thing by reaching out, the community is here for you!😀

    when you say reivew do you mean the phone assessment? get a friend to be with you. or do you mean you've sent it off and are worried about the outcome? If you've filled it in and kept a copy you should be ok. try not to worry about the outcome as it's in the future and you can't control it. try to concentrate on this moment now…. and breeeathe!

    otherwise you'll stress yourself out in the meantime and won't have any energy left….

    try to do thing you love even if it's only have a cuppa and read a magazine. or a bath
