Also, when you are assessed, be as honest as possible. When I had my assessment, I was in the room with the assessor lady - who was lovely - for 2 and 3/4 hours which was a very long time! You can have breaks if you need, though I didn't, I just basically stated things how they were and detailed my worst days. It sounds a bit depressing but you've got to say how it really is in order to get the support that you deserve.
