I was given a new assessement which then awarded me 0 points despite evidence that my condition had deteriorated since the date of the Tribunal which had seen fit to award the 15 pts. I will now appeal again but the system is wearing me down. I struggle with a lot of pain every day and to have to continually fight in this manner is soul destroying . Mentally it is hard work to put a case together when you feel rough and are on strong paIinkillers. I am sure I am not alone.........
Have a look at the ESA Claim guides which explain the criteria you need to meet for the WRAG and the Support Group.

If your going to any Assessment take someone with you as a "Witness" and also "Record" it, I wish I did now but I did not think I needed too but I'm not the Brightest Sparkler in the Packet because I find it hard to think straight with the Depression and I also have Dyslexia so I finds it hard to put over what I'm thinking etc thank god for Speech to Text.
