My MR for pip was turned down. My anxiety has gone through the roof since finding out yesterday. I feel alone having to fight for my benefit which they turned down after a recent review. Before that I was getting my pip at lower rate for my anxiety and depression after the review form it has stopped but there's been no change in my mental health if anything it's worse! I've got no fight left in me to fight it! Can anyone give me any help and advice as where I can get some support please. Looks like I've got to appeal not sure if I can cope. Any advice would be much appreciated ? thank you

    Thank you Tori lovely to know there's someone out there to help. Been difficult to access help with mental health but I have rung the hospital where I went when I was struggling before so hopefully they will be able to give me some support. Waiting to hear back from them thank you again x
