    Do you mind me asking what it entailed and how long it took? I have a letter from a private Consultant Psychiatrist to my GP diagnosing me with Aspergers but said a second assessment with a Psychologist was always useful. I think this second assessment is a morning or afternoon. But I don't know what it involves (I did write 8 pages of A4 explaining my experiences and life history)
