Got my mental health assessment next week, its been 4 and half months since i got referred. Have been well and stable for about 6 weeks.
Bizzarely im hoping to get diagnosed, then i'll have something kinda solid to work with, something to fight so to speak.

Make a list of your moods to take with you to your assessment. You may be given some written tests or verbal ones to sort out your thought processes, they're just part of many psych assessments so don't get worried about them. There is no pass-fail for the tests.

Having a true diagnosis gives us a better chance to learn strategies to cope with our MI. (It's definitely has helped me)

Hi faerie,

Yes I agre. It is worth diarying your moods and incidents (if you have not already done so) as you are the best witness to your own diagnosis. All thequestions really depend on your responses in order to get an accurate picture.

I hope the meds you are on are giving you some relief and managing your depression.

Best Wishes
