PIP is not about getting disabled people back into work.
You can work full time and still claim PIP.
It is there to tackle the extra costs you face as a disabled person. Those costs don't disappear if you work.
Been really getting back into writing the past couple of months with an idea that's been knocking around my head since Christmas, and I think I finally finished act one. Between that and writing my third TTRPG I've done a lot of typing this week
