Hi there, personally I feel thats a decision only you can make. Only you know how bad you are.
From what you say you are not feeling as bad as you were. So in their eyes they would see that as an improvement I guess.
The PIP award is given for a reason. If you feel you qualify for it then by all means try for it xx

you when applying for PIP have to be aware of the criteria for claiming. Too many people think that PIP is awarded on a condition illness’s or a disability diagnosis. PIP is awarded on your abilities to preform the PIP descriptors safely repeatedly and in a timely manner . As Ajay has said do the PIP self test see how you fair but be honest with your self because any information you submit in your application will have to be justified at your assessment.
