Page 9 of ESA form talks about "Sitting & Standing" (Q2), i can sit or stand for about 30 mins to an hour before the pain become to bad for me and i will have to sit down or move to another kind of seating postition (ie sofa to office chair) i don't need help to get up off the chair "normally" but when standing for 30 mins i need my Mrs to massage my back very hard to ease the pain, so should i answer 30mins to 1hour or click something else as i dont normally need help getting up

The STanding and Sitting activity looks at your ability to remain at a workstation, you can stand or sit or move between the two as you need to, the clock only stops when you are forced to move away from the workstation to avoid significant discomfort or exhaustion.

So your answer needs to take account of the above.
