I would say its always worth applying for it. Citizens advice would help with the application if you are unsure how to answer the questions.

I receive pip but have multiple health issues. It is worth applying for but you definitely need help to complete the form. There is an art to it! Ideally contact CAB or at very least look at how to complete form on CAB website. There is also a helpful site called benefitsandwork.co.uk which you have to join but again is lots of helpful information.

Finally some councils have a money advice unit which would also help you.
