When I was a lot worse than I am now I had to deal with how dehumanizing these places were. If your parents hadn't gotten you diagnosed with whatever is wrong with you and you can't afford to see a doctor because you have undiagnosed mental health issues that make it so you can't hardly hold a job no one cares. I have had intrusive thoughts about doing something similar, I have to wonder how many people killed themselves while holding the rejection letter or just waiting for a response from the disability agency.

DWP has a strong track record of basically killing its applicants and hires some of the most demonic people to exact their cruelty. I remember an article a long while back where the DWP listed someone in a coma as fit for work.
