Esa affecting Pip ?

Esa affecting Pip ? was created by metrorider
Hi,
I was recently awarded enhanced rate PiP until February 2019. Unfortunately, due to my anxiety disorder/Avoidant Personality disorder I've had to leave my part time job with a charity as I'd had issues with dealing with other staff members. This has been the cycle of my life for as long as I can remember and at 46 I've really had enough of this now. I don't want to throw the towel in but I have to make a decision as regards the rest of my working life to be honest.
If I claim Esa I know I will have to jump through the hoops to get it as I had to for my PiP award. Is it risky applying for ESA with my PIP award in place? I fear if I'm turned down for ESA then it might affect my current PiP award.
If not then could my PiP award work in my favour to get into the Support group of ESA?
NB: I got the PiP award using your guides
