I have a psychiatrist appointment and was wondering, while I was there, giving him a list of problems, would it be ok to tell him that worrying about the ESA and PIP process is making my anxiety and addiction problems worse?
The nurse said he would do a report as standard procedure, but If the psychiatrist writes on this report that the pip/esa process worry is making me worse, would that be a problem if the DWP found out that these processes are causing me more stress, or would this make things worse or me. I have addiction problems, years of abuse anxeity and depression.

Please try and keep all of your posts in one topic, I'm the only Mod on at the moment and I have not git the time to chase around the forum to merge your posts!!!

Yes, you can do this, ask the secretary to send you a copy of the letter directly.

Hi Gordon and thanks.

I am very sorry for causing you inconvenience by starting another thread, but I did think about where to put this thread but wasn't sure what topic to put this in.
Should it have gone in the evidence thread I wrote www.benefitsandwork.co.uk/forum?view=top...0&id=108774&start=18
If so please accept my apologies for causing you more work.
