Cany manage UC claim anymore

I have a severe mental health condition and have been getting UC for about a year , my GP will issue a sick note any time I need  but I am not well enough to manage the appointments or organise things they want me to do, I just don't have the energy or concentration to do it anymore. What should I do ?

    Do you have a friend or family member that might help you? Getting a Work Capability Assessment should be your priority if you have not had one yet. 
    The comments I post are my personal opinion. While I try to check everything is correct before posting, I can and do make mistakes, so always try to check official information sources before relying on my posts.
