Hello,
So, after five years of putting it off, I'm finally getting round to rearranging my referral for an assessment. Since I was last referred, I have started taking sertraline for anxiety and other various mental health tribulations, and as a result I've become far less anxious about social interactions (among other things). I still find them draining and difficult to navigate, but I tend not to spiral as badly as I once did and seem far more laid back.
My question is, because of the differences in my behaviour since starting sertraline, I'm wondering if an assessor would ask me to come off it in order to see me in my natural habitat as it were. It's not a pleasant prospect so I'd rather be prepared, and if anyone has any insight into this worry of mine, I'd really appreciate any advice.
