Do you have any idea of the percentage of people that pass a WCA on the Mental Health section because im finding lots of stories of people with Mental Health problems been found fit for work.
Im reading lots of negative stories but I cant seem to find any positive outcome stories about passing the WCA on the Mental Health section.

Mental Health problems are always going to be difficult, they are poorly understood and can be subject to variation from day to day, a broken leg is easy because you can the plaster and understand how it would effect someone's walking.

If you have a look at page 10 of the following it has some breakdown of ESA awards.
