New PIP Claim form - Any good pointers

[DonkeyRose]

I have had bipolar since 2013 with general anxiety disorder. Now have been diagnosed with fibro with all symptoms. Any good advice to complete the form please

Maybe get in touch with FMAUK for advice on benefits - they helped me a lot once I was diagnosed for general information. Good luck with PIP. It can feel a bit overwhelming, so I could only complete a little bit at a time and asked for a time extension from them.

Yes I will definitely get in touch with FMAUK for advice. Thank you kindly.

note not everyone gets PIP for Fibro and / or mental health conditions

[DonkeyRose in reply to Hidden]

I shall bear this in mind. Thank you

Yes. I have found the Citizens Advice very informative.

I am sure by now reading everyone’s pip advice that it doesn’t actually matter what illness you have it’s how your daily life is affected.

I would get some help filling out the forms and make sure you list everything you need help with and include all the medications you are taking .
