Panic

I decided I didn't want to wait for the GP and getting caught up in the system.

I want to know one way or the other.

So I found someone who can do a pre-assesment privately. I really want to use it just as a starting point.

I've been given a date. Now Im panicing. Not in terms of what the result might be, but that it is accurate, that I present myself properly warts and all, that the assessor will see through any masks I put on, and accurately diagnose. Then there's the bit of me that says have I built this up too much? I think I have problems, people around me say it's normal behaviour and I just need to practice. What if Im a fraud and given over one image of myself and everyones really disappointed in me and it's a big waste of time because it's found that Im just actually normal? Then there's the waste in time and money.

Scared.

    I have been here for around a month or so.  I've got my 15 page history, my 8 page current issues, and my 10 page colour coded issues ready to go.

    The hard thing is not knowing what's normal and whether Im a fraud.

    People around me say that what Im going through is normal, loads of people struggle with what I go through. Really? Then why is it when I look around people are so much more forward in their lives compared to me?

    I've been lurking here a while and have a few messages elsewhere. I got one about socialising at the moment.

    I guess while I have a captive audience now, I'll just share the latest thing that Im annoyed with at myself.

    I want to give someone a present. Good friend, I don't fancy them, there's no ulterior motives. I got a present for one person, then got worried that that might suggest I was hitting on someone, so got another five people including the good friend, one of these presents. Then I summised that giving the same present to those five people outside of the original one would lessen the gravitas of the present to the original person. But I thought today, no, I must give said present. But I can't approach said person to give them the present unless they're on their own.

    Why couldn't I just go up to them and give them the present?

    Someone walks up to me, opens dialogue, I can respond to it. But not the other way around. I want to scream. I've had enough.

    Oh that's not everything Im going through, but it's just the latest thing to add to my list.
