Re: Mental health assessment tomorrow - eek!
Hello Anna,
Firstly I am sorry that you had such an awful experience at the doctors. I had one that I found really scary when I was 18. Anyway I think the most important thing to remember is that these people or person is there to help and just have a little chat.
If you explain when you first settle down that you are nervous then I am sure they will accommodate this. They are there to help you, please believe this.Not all are the kind who believe they can cure you by forcing you to ride out a panic attack! Bloomin' fool if you don't mind me saying, I just don't think that can help......
Just explain to them and if you do find yourself getting upset take a deep breath and tell them. Be honest and they will help.
Take care x
