Can I submit a recording of my daily struggles?

I have had my PIP turned down this time, after 6 yrs and two successful assessments. I have read the advice re keeping a journal, but I would have great difficulty doing this in written form, even using a computer.
I have Fibromyalgia, Osteoarthritis, Chronic Depression, Dissociative Identity Disorder, Very bad
Asthma. Besides my physical disabilities on a daily basis, my cognitive ability is severely poor.
I have kept a video diary on my phone to submit. Am I allowed to do this?

You can provide a video diary but I will be honest and say that it is very unlikely to be reviewed.

Is there someone who could transcribe the content for you?

Hi
I struggle with typing too. If you have a smart phone preferably I phone there is a dictation tab. You can then dictate your reply’s or letters, I did my entire PIP claim using this. My hubby corrected punctuation for me.I explained that this is my usual way of communication & DWP & HP accepted it.
Hope this helps.
