I suffer from bipolar disorders along with physical disabilities. I used to work as a chef but can't take the stress of a kitchen from both mental and physical reasons but the DWP are trying to force me back to work, they have disregarded my physical problems and I'm at a lose as where to turn

Hello @cjn63 and welcome to the community.
Sadly at the moment it seems all the DWP is interested in is trying to get anyone of working age to get into work, whether it is detrimental to your health or not. -
Bipolar UK now have a full time employment officer working out of the Crewe office. She is skilled in employment law and PIP issues. Link
