PIP assessment over at last

Had the assessment today. Lady was businesslike but said "fabulous" whenever I got an answer correct, like one pound minus 75p. I think I was doing OK until she asked me about education and she asked me if I hold a uni degree which I do. I noticed her scribbling loads of notes down about this and I was reading her notes upside down and it said "how got a degree with cognitive impairment". Actually Asperger's makes me smart with science and I got the degree before I got ill with bipolar.
Personally I do not think I have got the award. Broke down in tears twice, it was pretty horrible. Just glad it is over.

I have come out feeling like a fraudster actually! Except I have been sectioned numerous times so there must be something wrong with me.
She really peed me off keep saying "fabulous" because I could do a basic maths question.
The only positive is I will go on getting DLA for 8 weeks...then I guess I am stuffed.

Yes they are experts in making us feel like fraudsters. My fingers are crossed for you Benion, hope you get a good result. Am not surprised she peed you off, saying "fabulous" all the time, that would have drove me up the wall too. Best o luck! PP

May I ask what they define as 'cognitive impairment' being exactly? I had a similar situation at my assessment, when I mentioned I attended Grammar school, which was then mentioned in the notes on my rejection letter, and which also included the bit about not showing any signs of cognitive impairment.
