Has anyone been through one of these with having mental health issues. If you're diagnosed do they take you seriously?

This is a really good guide to PIP tribunals:

Other useful info here:

The tribunal will be more thorough than the assessment.
Do your preparation - know where you should score the necessary points (http://www.benefitsandwork.co.uk/personal-independence-payment-pip/pip-self-test ), see if you GP/CPN will write in support of your appeal, and have examples / notes to take to the hearing (relating to the PIP activities & points) to tell the tribunal about how your condition affects your day-to-day life.
