If anyone has information/advice/experience on the following, it would be much appreciated....

For those of you that have been referred for an official psychiatric assessment for a 'working diagnosis'....Could you please tell me what to expect. I'm guessing most UK psychiatrists use similar, if not the same guidelines to assess people? What does this involve? What will they ask? Really just want to know what to expect and be prepared.

Second question... anyone that has been on any antidepressant, anxiety meds, antipsychotics that experience severe hot flushes and excessive sweating, has the GP been able to prescribe anything to help this?

My medication is making me better but I cannot continue being dripping in sweat with damp clothing day and night...Blush
