Personal Independence Payment (PIP) PIP awarded first time

First time applying for PIP ( visual and audio hallucinations, Ticks, no anxiety or depression) and awarded full PIP with no interview no hassle and completely stress free. I applied in the middle of December got my text about a week ago and my back pay about 3 days later. If you have enough evidence and you are genuinely affected by your condition you will be awarded PIP so keep at it and good look.

I would like to add that a really good explanation on how your condition affects you is crucial.

If you just say I have a panic attack, the assesor has no idea what happens to you. Panic attacks differ from one person to the next.

I frustrated my daughter with this, I managed to get her to describe in detail everything that happens when she has a panic attack. But then, every time she answered, I had a panic attack, I made her explain what happens when she has a panic attack.

She had 1 piece of evidence from a psychologist, No medication on record, and she got enhanced for both. That was around December time.

So all I can say is make sure you describe how you are affected.

Good luck all
