BBut That's the point it hard enough now to get pip if that's the one health benefit by 2028 2029 literally no one will qualify I think if you get an award now that' last after 2029 2030 your be ok that's my thoughts

I’ve read the Telegraph, Dailymail, and GB news articles. They allege the reforms are targeted at tightening the definitions of mental health eligibility and being more specific at which condition are ‘true’ mental health. Conditions like Anxiety as listed as expensive. Another area is more proof will be required to qualify; they don’t expand upon what this means.
Good news is that the cash for voucher scheme seems to be rejected.

Indeed, I am no expert on the subject but the best I can say and I say this to everyone about most things, not just this site is don't worry until you have something to worry about.
In other words no point worrying about things that may not even exist/come true

Which targets me directly as I’ve just had to claim pip for my mental health as I’ve been left so long with no help that I require my partner to become my legal carer, I mean why don’t they target people who are already a safeguarding risk for taking their own lives, just strip us of our money and peace of mind, that’ll get rid of us completely

What about autism, ? I got high rate for that and standard for mobility. My mobility has worsend since .I have copd. But haven't put it in again as I was given 10 years at the end of 22.

There’s no mentions of specific conditions, just vague stigmatisation of mental health claimants like we saw with Sunak and the Tories.
Honestly, the writers of these articles are just guessing like we are. I’m trying not to worry as well.

The same thing happened to some people I knew who were on indefinite awards. When they changed it to PIP they changed them to a lesser time frames.

What's this levelling up white paper can't read it all but seems it's always been in pipeline I reckon thier trying to come from a holistic approach go for a walk for 30 mins a day eat well sleep well the way the whole world is going it's all planned firstly it will start with new claimants all we can hope is ellen clifford made some dents but if it's preplanned noting can do but two years to even find out what they class as acceptable diagnosis for benefits I've been close to drinking again one minute up the next down it's cruel but none of them care

Autism isn't a mental health condition.

Oh ok, thanks Poppy. Don't they know what they are doing to us. Reeves failure. They could of done good when they came in, instead of these harebrain ideas. Spending money abroad. Mad climate things like solar. Its not that sunny in the uk. Larry the cat could run the government better

I know ive just got my PIP renewed for 6 years till 2030, but still its extremely worrying what this government has got planned for us.
It will end in travesty, im absolutely terrified. This is scary stuff.

Can you get for neurological issues

Yes. I claim for cerebral palsy, which is a neurological condition.

Yes.
Although I think which would happen is those who get PIP for any Mental Health Issue, to get vouchers weekly. so they can get private help, than rather wait on the NHS for things like therapy. Therapy on NHS only gets you a certain amount, whereas on Private you can get as many as you want, as long as you pay and I presume this could happen with vouchers

Please remember that these media reports are all speculation at the moment. The government have not yet said what's coming down the line and by them not saying what the changes are it is causing people anxiety. Granted I think there's going to be changes but we'll just have to wait until the Spring to find out.
