Esa reassessments was created by guiditta
I have been on ESA too embaresssed so say how long and I have had many assessments. One Appeal and I am in the Support Group
My last assessment was 26//2/19. I have just received a health Assessment Form for 14/2/20. I am suprised this has been so soon as nothing has changed. I know someone who has never as far as i can tell had an assessment whereas I have had them constantly. I know this is not a competition but this person is in much better health than me, There have been gaps 3 years the longest I believe, but much of this due to reorganistion or bureaucracy rather than because of any acknowledgent of my health condition.
I just feel such intense pressure to have to go through this again, the last time i just burst in to tears as to go through the realities of my life to a a young nurse who kept looking at herself in the mirror, it was just overwhelmimg.
As I was not seen fit for work then and still kept in the support group {and believe me I never imagined this life}. How can I avoid another assessment when nothing has changed but I am getting worse and worse and infact have another medical condition? I know if I expect benefits I have to go through certain things, but I just don't know how I am going to get through it gain and I am already feeling really stressed.

I've moved your post to its own topic, we ask members not to post their questions in other's topics as it can cause confusion as to who is being replied to.
Unfortunately, there is little that you can do about this, the period between assessments is not part of the Decision, all that you can do is supply evidence to either show that a longer period is appropriate or that there is no requirement for further assessment.
