Hi sometime ago i posted a thread about my claim for pip. I was unsucesful like most people unfortunatly.
After this i found a score sheet online (sounded and looked genuine as id heard u get 2 point or something for each question if you do struggle). i cant remember all the rules now as this was months ago.
I was wondering if there was something online i could print off and go by when i appeal my next claim (looking to claim again in nex few weeks)
I first claimed when all my help and therapys where being processed so this mental team didnt have nothing on me to go by except records from 6 years prior and to be fair... there wasnt much there either due to me not being ready to accept help.
Now my theraoys starting ill be doing 2 differnt therapys a week at least (dbt and phsycotherapy) quacks also looking for me to do mbt aswell in near future. meaning ill be having therapy 3 days a week for atleast 2 hours a time (cbt group therapy 2 hours and mbt will be 2 hours apprently also) not sure about phsyc app. this all starts this week.
if theres something me and the phsyc can tally up with and send it with letters for the appeal if im unlucky again it would help as id be more prepared this time.
anyone else have any ideas on how to deal with it?

Yes, that's how claims are decided. You can download a copy here - as well as the guidance used by assessors
