I don't know what to suggest . Other than you must get in touch with your doctor and ask for a full assessment of that was said in the letter .. tell them you're not happy and want something done .. and make sure someone is with you at the assessment . And record it if you have too.. keep us posted and let us know how you get on .... try not to worry to much about this just now just try and relax until you can get your doctor to sort something for you x
Im in shock that they could put out a letter so shocking that could hurt my case more then help it and to top it off not tell me about this mental health situation so this weekened im going to be in bed and reserching it all up and resting thank you tho for always been there for me xxx
got told not to hand it becasue it will cause more damange then good im so upset atm as this new mental helath thing noone has told me about and iv looked it up and its me in a nutshell
Have someone with you for the assessment definitely, they can speak as well if you forget something or get upset.
If the letter seems more damaging than helpful I would not give it. You could say you've been diagnosed with.......
They only want to know how everything affects you, so tell them warts and all
All the best
HI there don't necessarily believe that psychiatrists are right in respect of diagnosis. I was misdiagnosed. It's not even a science.take care x
Hun your pip assessment is to establish how illnesses affect daily living so u really dont need to mention you m.h issue..make yourself notes about coping with fibro_ if thats wot your claimng against. Leave no stone unturned i didnt and ask someone to be with u on thr day...
Thank you everyone my dad will be with me and its for my fibro, endo and ibs im guessing also my anxiety is so bad it does make me not want to do anything iv had a good night sleep thank god and i spoke to smartines last night too as i was upset now i see things clearly i need to make sure everything is right also i have just printed off this pip thing i did last night that i know is true so i remeber what to say as my memory is a joke after all this iv got my docotr and im going to be asking why she never told me about this new illness when i asked and also about my meds as i think she keeps fobbing me off when i ask her stuff i wish my mum and dad could take days off to be at all my stuff but they simply cant but i now know i need to write down everything or even make sure i have it somewhre so i remeber im so scared about this pip as i keep getting told horrer storys xxx
Have you copy of the pip forms you sent in to them,
the questions they ask usually are same order as the pip forms, you know your illnesses best and how they affect you
Hugs
