Self referral form advice

Undiagnosed32

Hi, I've received a self referral form to fill in for an assessment. Has anyone done one, who could offer some advice please?

I'm struggling what to write for the reasons why, examples of behaviour etc...  I'm anxious that i'll do it wrong and not get offered an assessment-  i've briefly wrote my reasons why i would like to be assessed, then some background about my childhood and some problems i have now although i've learnt to mask quite well. Included in my mental health problems during the years aswell. Is this what they looking for or do i need to write specific examples of behaviours?  I find that it's easier to explain my thoughts/behaviours when talking about them rather then writing.

Thanks x

  • Thank you everyone- i've been able to explain more about my childhood then at present - might try and include couple of more examples.

    I've explained about masking and also mentioned using alcohol for social situations as i feel more relax but its also a time when my guard comes down and my behaviour/emotions show more. Think i should leave this part out? 

    Thanks x
