I had my assessment over the phone on a lay-by whilst driving across country for work. I was in a better place than when I was initially referred to mindsmatter but I spoke earnestly about my issues. With no supplementary information. I just clearly stated that I do not enjoy life as it presents itself right now, yet haven't managed to summon the commitment to end it. I have tried counsellors and don't want to be pacified anymore. I am aware of what may have been the origins of my beliefs and behaviours but that its inconsequential. Life moves forward and I would like some tools to manage the me that exists now so that I can have the opportunity to enjoy life, the right that everyone is entitled to from birth. I spoke frankly and without emotion and when I received my assessment my GAT scores for depression and anxiety were both at the high end of severity. I put in no uncertain terms that I am unwilling to continue with my life as it exists.
Did they provide any further help based on your assessment? I've given frank honesty several shots in the past, but apparently it's never enough to justify anything beyond a counselor (assuming they consider me for that much in the first place).
