ClaimGuide Team: You may be able to claim PIP if a mental health condition causes difficulties with daily living or getting around, regardless of whether you have a particular diagnosis. The difficulties usually need to have affected you for at least three months and be expected to continue for at least nine more, with an assessment considering how reliably and often you can complete activities. Evidence from a GP, mental health professional or support worker can help, although you can still apply without it. Check the latest guidance on GOV.UK, noting that Scotland uses Adult Disability Payment instead.
