Got my assessment appointment ....

Hi - I joined this forum a little time ago when I was starting the assessment process. I completed some questionnaires and now have two appointments, both for 2 and a half hours one day after the other. I'm now feeling incredibly anxious - mostly that I am wasting NHS time - that I've managed up until now so why am I pursuing thing and all the reasons I had have evaporated in the face of worry and anxiety. I don't know whether to cancel. I don't know what to expect from the appointments which is making things worse. I also have a questionnaire for a family member but there is no way my family are getting involved so can't get that completed. I know the answers to the questions on it having had previous family discussions but I know that's not the same. I am not even sure what I'm asking for by posting on here just wanted to get the thoughts out somewhere. I don't know whether to proceed or not. I'm so worried that I'll go and be laughed out of the place as an attention seeker.

  • thanks - the imposter syndrome was really tricky to manage. combined with anxiety about everything anyway.....  I almost didn't go back to my second appointment as I was convinced I had completed all the questions and tasks from the first session in a wholly competent and utterly NT way....  turns out I had not..... very much not!
