    It is worth trying but I'd suggest getting help with the claim form

    @jinty2k8 ESA is about your ability to work. So you need to think about what effect your night time condition and what you have to do to keep yourself safe has on whether or not you are fit to work. When you start the claim there will be plenty of opportunity to write how your condition affects you.
