Honestly, it never occured to me that you could apply for disability for it. I see you are from Scotland! That is so cool. My great grandparents are from Edinburough (I never spell that right). I am so looking forward to one day visiting. Anyways, I am from United States. I don't think many people let alone countries take it seriously unless they either see the affects it has on people first hand or get it themselves. I wish you luck in getting it approved though.
