First Part of Assessment

Wellington

Hi everyone. The first part of my assessment this week and my anxiety levels are through the roof. Even though I have reasearched and read about what happens many times I am not sure still what to expect and I am worried I am doing the right thing. Well, I need to know for sure but it is just worrying to be finally doing this. 

Does every adult that has been or going through this feel the same? 

Whatever the outcome I want to say thanks to everyone for the support on this forum.

  • Thanks everyone. I am the sort of person who "plans" or reherses conversations in their head prior to having them. Sounds odd but I just can not seem to do this in preparation for the first interview. I think it's that which is making me panicky.It seems such a short time to get out everything I would like to say and I don't want to miss any key points. I wrote a huge report on myself months ago to get it all straight and down on a paper so I will use that too.

    Also worried about outcome. Ive been contemplating this for over two years now,  almost everyday. It all fits but if I get told I am not then what am I? Also although I do not post much here, I have enjoyed talking here. It makes me feel less alone and I am gratefull for the support. 

    Also worried about a postive reaction too. I have read a lot about acceptance being tough. I hope I can cope with it.

    Many thanks again everybody. I just need to voice this.
