It's not really a case of 'I've got this ,so I should get that' . There are some who just cannot do full time work, or part time come to that. Others could but choose not too.so therefor it's how your conditions affect you personally and if you fall into the former or latter category.if the former then you should get help and it's certainly worth applying.

As others have said it's not what conditions you have but what you can't now do and how this effects your life.Many do try and fail.I got full points but chose not to part with most for a car. We already have an old one so will see how that lasts out.

I think you need to get enhanced rate too but you can have tax free for any car aswell.I don't do that

Definitely apply. Always take a friend/family member with you, someone who knows how your health is affected and can chip in.

Yes please do, I had it when I was in work. Sadly too poorly too now. But you need to spend time planning your form. Good luck.😘
