I have my assesment at the personality disorder hub tomorrow and i am getting seriously anxious about it as I am not sure what to expect!
I had an assessment on Sunday I cant say they would be the same but at mine they got some background information on me etc and also what my issues are what the causes are so they can then refer me to the correct team,
I know it's scary, but honestly it'll be basically admin as Angie has said - what your issues are, how they affect you...
Let us know how you get on?

Well so far they have buggered up my appointment and told me to come back at 1
Oh no! That's not helpful to someone who was worried about going in the first place! Sorry lovely.

Assesment was ok but no places on the course until november
That's OK, it's a point to work towards...
Do you have any other support or options until then?

Nope just the crisis team
Then use them, they’re a resource not many of us get so make the most of them :)

I do use them, why don’t many people get to use them? I thought every nhs trust had a crisis support number??
But not everyone gets given the number or is known to the team
Or is deemed to be enough "in crisis" to warrant their involvement...

I only have access to their telephone line not the actual crisis team only the doctor can get them
The more you call them when you need to then the better as they can build up a proper picture of how you are, how you are coping and what support you need.

Yes they now have a crisis plan for me. I’m not in crisis tho i just feel a bit in limbo i get told oh you have bpd, we will refer you for this course which i knew there would be a wait in but didnt expect it to be quite as long with nothing in between, i am sure i will live its just been a bad week, even dermatology who usually say have some light therapy now want biopsies and are saying i may need immunosurpressants.
Think i may use my gym like a spa at the weekend and go for a jacuzzi and sauna etc some chill time
Sounds like a good plan for the weekend.
Sorry about the dermatology..
