I had been on a waiting list to get an assessment for CBT.
After a long ten months, that assessment arrived, and after talking through with the therapist, she was of the opinion that CBT would not be recommended to me.
This came as a shock, as the whole route of CBT was at the suggestion of my GP last year. I was stunned, frustrated and angry.
Two months later, the therapist saw me again, to reaffirm her decision to not let me undertake CBT in a bid to resolve major issues I have going on with myself.
Her main reasons for this were that I was unable to transfer the abilities and skills from the exercises over into my lifestyle scenarios.
At this point I asked her if CBT was not suitable, then what else might be worth pursuing. It was then that she advised AGAINST any mental health form of treatment to combat the problems I have.
As she believes the issues are intwined in the AS, nothing would work.
A report is now being sent back to my GP now, to confirm her decision.
The question is what do I do now?
I cannot carry on regardless.
