Question 14 UC50 Form was created by D
Hi
I have already read the Employment and support Guide and its very helpful but i just have a couple of questions about Qestion 15 Going out. I suffer with Depression and anxiety etc
i live by my self so sometimes I have to go out to the GP, Therapy, Dentist etc by myself if i like it or not so Im just wondering can i score points on this question if i write sometimes like sometimes i cant go out due to Depression and Anxierty being so bad for example i would like to get something from the shop but cant because im feeling too depressed to get dressed and also my friend will be going with me to the assessment so can i put i wouldnt be able to go to the assessment without him so will those 2 score me points do you think?. Many thanks, D

The first thing to look at is whether you can get to an unfamiliar place on your own, as this may allow you to score some points.
You can also argue that you are only able to go out when there is an overwhelming imperative for you to do so, the examples you include in your post and that you count under normal circumstances.
See our ESA Claim guides for more information.
