Hello @Hailz36 Pleased to meet you welcome.
Thank you for joining and sharing.
I am one of the team of community champions who offer advice, guidance, information to new members joining.
Sorry what has happened . Have you tried Benefits and Works PIP self test.
This is a useful idea to give you some ideas of what you could score in PIP.
Also if you unhappy with a benefit decision . You can appeal . You will need to request a mandatory reconsideration.
We have lots of information about appealing a DWP benefits decision On our website which you might find useful.
Are you getting any support with you Bipolar if not have look on line. I have mental health issues myself. May I advise worth having a look. Something to consider.
https://wwwrichmondfellowship.org.uk. Is one such charity I used. Helped with benefits and anything else.
One other suggestion having problems reading council letter ask them to send you . Audio tapes or CD.
Please can I also suggest speak to CAB about your housing issues. Go and make an appointments to seek advice. Regarding any correspondence. I know that might be difficult with your panic attacks but they do and are very pleasant.
I was nervous first time went and have a lot of anxiety. To give you reassurance..
I use them for form filling in, benefit knowledge and expertise.
Please take care.
