I agree with what's been said. DLA isn't income assessed, it's based on your needs and how you cope with stuff etc.
Don't feel bad for coping.
As a side note, I filled out the form for DLA this week. Considering it's something that's supposed to help you, it was a truly awful experience.
I was really shocked by how upset that form made me feel. I'm so glad I finally finished it. I don't even really care what their response is, as long as I don't have to fill it out again!
