Hiya people
I'm currently receiving DLA and ESA, I get DLA on low rate mobility and medium rate care, this has been this way for just over a year as I have psychosis.
Now (in past 8 weeks) I have been diagnosed with schizophrenia, which for me is so disabiling I cannot go outside, alone or accompanied. I have called DLA and filled out a claim form again telling the DWP about changes in my condition.
Has anyone else applied for a reveiw of their benefits?
If so could you please tell me how long it took for them to decide? I am currently paying a 'baby sitter' to 'watch' me while my partner is at work, we need a bit more financial help to cover my carers cost.
Any help at all is most appreciated
