DLA looks at needs, if you can have a professional working with you verify you need certain elements of care such as supervision, help with food and drink, motivation to get up and reminding with medication [for example, there are many more] then you have a claim.
A diagnosis wouldn't ever be the deciding factor, its about your current needs. See, someone with bi-polar could be on medication and their condition is managed well, have a job and be fully functioning without any significant needs other than a healthy functioning person.
