I just had an assessment yesterday from Capita for PIP. It was tough and exhausting but overall not too bad an experience. The questions were never ending and the physical part was pathetic in terms of not having to do much but she said it will take 4-14 weeks for an answer. Have any of you had this experience? I also have 3 kids with Autism and have to say there is NO support when they reach 18

Hi @jinx welcome to the community. Sorry to hear that your assessment was so exhausting, lots of people really struggle with these so you arent alone. Best of luck with your answer!
What sort of support would be helpful for your kids? @VioletFenn do you know anything about adult support for ASD?
