Psychiatry UK report - what to expect

I’m just over halfway through my estimated 4 week wait for my formal report after being told verbally in my assessment with Psychiatry UK that I meet the criteria for an ASC diagnosis. 

My mind has been in overdrive since the assessment, and I’m hoping the report will answer a lot of my questions. But I’m also worried that I might be expecting too much from the document. 

Has anyone else here had one of these reports from Psychiatry UK? Are they fairly in-depth or just a standard letter so your GP can add the diagnosis to your record?

  • Mine had things I agreed with a some that I definitely did not agree with. So my advice is to remember, you probably already know yourself pretty well, so keep that in mind, the report is just somebody's opinion of you based off of a short assessment.

    I think it is easy to think that it will answer all your prayers and quandaries, but the truth is, it isn't as valuable as you may hope and the things you already know about yourself deep down are more accurate, in my humble opinion.

    Having said that, it is nice to finally read an assessment of the traits you have probably been evaluating by yourself for ages so, it's a balance.

    I hope it gives you some peace at least Pray
