    i am not committing fraud! do you suffer bi-polar?

    Yes, I receive DLA for it. However, I filled out the forms honestly, describing both my bad and better days, and stating how often each type of day happens.

    If you are not committing fraud, then you will have no problem calling the DLA Team on Tuesday and explain to them how you completed the form. They will send you a new form which you can complete honestly.

    Many people (including myself) have bad and better days. I'm sure it says (at least on the mobility section) "is there anything else you need to tell us? For example, does your condition vary?"

    If you have carte/mobility need arising from your bi-polar then i'd say yes put in a claim, i do know people who claim DLA for bipolar.

    Could you get DLA for bipolar if you were working full time..?
    Feudal Britain needs land reform. 70% of the land is "owned" by 1 % of the population and at least 50% is unregistered (inherited by landed gentry). Thats why your slave box costs so much..
  • i havent contradicted myself if you read back! i wrote vries varies varies as i do! i do not tell lies neither! what have i to lie about! not here to argue but to help people get help their entitled to!noone has right to judge some1 til u,ve walked in their shoes! i get what im entitled to by filling in form honestly! im sure others are entitled to more help than what they get but because of way they fill out form they dont get help they need!
