Don’t use the phrase “on a good day”!! Haha
Write it as it is your absolute WORST CASE DAY regardless of if it is or isn't. Get evidence of everything including letters to back it up and make sure if you are not sure ask for help from an advocate

I have applied twice but I didn't get enough points. It doesn't matter the conditions or pain I am in. Literally they said I can't get it because I can walk and I can manage my finances.

I'm trying to get pip too. I am getting drs letters, hospital letters, and citizens advice to fill it in. Apparently pretend it's a bad day. Good luck xx

I got told by citizens advice and my therapists while applying that I need to pretend it's a bad day every day it they won't listen doesn't sound as nice as the other replies here 😅 but that's what I was told to do

Best thing I did was go to the citizens advice. They help to fill it in and they will help to fight it if it comes bad has a bad outcome
@La_Dama thank you sm x

When your filling in the how your disability affects you citizens advice website is very helpful in the how to fill in your claim form

Yes please when your assessment is booked please ask them to record it and also get permission for you to record your assessment as well just incase they dont record it :) good luck
@100p they can record the call? Or are they doing a print out of the entire discussion?
@mamabear1990 i’m not entirely sure because i havent asked them to record mine (biggest regret)
@100p i will remember that! 💕
