You don’t need to do anything special to prepare, but it can be helpful to make notes about your symptoms, any past mental health treatments, medications you have tried, and questions you’d like to ask. Prior to your assessment you will be emailed a number of questionnaires to complete. There is always extra space for your to write more details, as we appreciate at times it can be easier to write your symptoms in advance to the doctor rather than verbalising these. If you have copies of previous psychiatric reports, GP letters, or a medication list, please bring them with you to your appointment.
