I have an assessment date for the mindfulness based CBT group.

Hi,

Well...I got a letter today with a date for my assessment for the Mindfulness CBT group. I'm going to have to change the time cos I'm meant to be at work, but should be ok. I hope. There's an info leaflet wth the letter and I have both the books that are used on the course. Is that a good start?!

There's a Beck's Depression Index questionnaire but I'm not sure quite how to answer. I wouldn't say I'm depressed at the moment, but I get overcome with anxiety and that's a different feeling-don't ya think?! I guess I can explain myself when I go to the appointment.

What are people's experiences of CMHT assessments?

Thanks

Sounds good enough to me, though you could maybe ring them first and say your not sure on this form cause you got anxiety issues rather than depression !

I do have both but recently it's been more anxiety. I've decided I'm going to take the things I wrote down for the dr and show them that.
