I'm on DLA for my BPD. As whirlpools said, you need to fill it out as if it's your worst day. So for example, if your anxiety is bad then you will need help getting around outside, or if you self harm then you will need to be watched at night for your safety etc etc.

It really is helpful to get someone to fill the form out with you as it's long/complicated. And you have to have proof of your disability too, someone like your doctor or key worker will need to sign something to say the information is accurate.

I'm awarded for both care and mobility, although not as much for mobility.
