esa had been stopped

i had a work capability assessment recently and got a letter from the dwp to say that they have stopped my esa because the assessment shows that i am capable of doing some work. it says although i may have a disability, illness, or health condition im now capable of doing some work. i have a depressive illness and anxiety disorder and have pains in my legs although i can walk, they give me pain. i have no other income coming in. i am on housing benefit and council tax support. i have phoned them to let them know what has happened. i have to put it in writing and send them the last two of my bank statements. i am very worried about the whole situation i have seen my doctor to get some medication for my nerves i have asked him to write a letter on my behalf to support me on this. i have wrote to the dwp to ask for a mandatory reconsideration and i am still waiting. what happens to my housing benefit now? best wishes chelle

Hi Merlin486 thanks for that nice message i am trying to stay positive, but it aint easy i am trying

to keep my head above water & awaiting for a support letter from my gp. which i hope will be ready soon. my mandatory reconsideration is being processed apparently going to take 10 working days. When i get the letter from my gp do you think i should send it off to them straight away or hang on to it? best wishes chelle
