My Health Journal™ — The PIP Evidence Planner
Not a generic symptom diary. A structured 12-month evidence system built around PIP.
My Health Journal™ was created by Alison McRobbie, former DWP employee, founder of The Justice Journals and successful Employment Tribunal claimant, to solve one of the biggest problems people face when preparing for PIP: trying to remember months of day-to-day difficulties only when a form, review or assessment arrives.
This bespoke planner is built around The Justice Journals PIP Evidence Framework — a structured method for recording not simply how you felt, but what happened, what you tried to do, what help you needed, whether you could do it reliably, and what happened afterwards.
That distinction matters.
PIP is concerned with how your health condition or disability affects your ability to carry out specific daily living and mobility activities. Your difficulties can be hard to explain accurately months later, particularly when your symptoms fluctuate.
My Health Journal™ helps you build your own contemporaneous record as life happens.
Instead of trying to reconstruct everything from memory when your PIP review arrives, you'll have an organised record of your experiences, difficulties, assistance, aids, symptoms, appointments, medication and functional impact over time.
Built Around the PIP Evidence Framework
The planner prompts you to capture the details that are easily forgotten:
-
What happened that day — including symptoms, pain, fatigue and energy levels
-
Activities you attempted and any difficulties you experienced
-
Help or prompting you needed from another person
-
Aids, adaptations or strategies you used
-
Reliability — whether you could complete an activity safely, repeatedly, to an acceptable standard and within a reasonable time
-
What happened afterwards — including pain, exhaustion, recovery time or other effects
-
Patterns and fluctuations across good days, bad days and everything in between
- Appointments, treatment and medication changes
-
Evidence collected so important documents and events aren't forgotten
Over time, individual entries become something much more useful: a structured picture of how your condition affects your everyday life.
Created for PIP Applications, Reviews and Assessments
Use My Health Journal™ to organise information you may want to refer back to when:
completing a PIP application • preparing for a PIP review • attending a PIP assessment • speaking to healthcare professionals • reviewing an assessment report • organising supporting evidence
And because the journal is undated, you can begin whenever you need it rather than waiting for January.
Your Journal Also Includes The PIP Plan
Your purchase includes access to The PIP Plan — our supporting tutorials and worksheets designed to help you understand how to use your records and prepare your evidence.
So you're not simply receiving blank pages and being told to “track your symptoms.”
You have the planner, the framework and the supporting training.
