Hello @Firefly123 Please can I wish you all the best a positive outcome.
Some little tips, have anxiety.
Before you go out have a good breakfast Porridge or Eggs.
Calm music Classic FM. Drink cold water , deep breathing.
Do you have any support worker for the attending of your assessment?
Or any one supporting you.
Speaking on your behalf. If you need to.
Try to be thinking positive clear precise thoughts, questions take your time.
I used still do bring a bottle of water, then have a sip while thinking of the answer.
I do know to reassure you, had lots of these.
Had more positive outcomes then negative ones.
Please contact me anytime after wards, be a pleasure supporting you.
If I can offer compassion and empathy. Some one to talk things over.
As I have mental health myself know right now what you experiencing.
Please take care best wishes in my prayers and thoughts.

Thank yoo all. No one came I called them and they said call back in a few days and they might know why.
@thespiceman thanks for the tips. No I don't have any one supporting me I do have 4 young adult children 3 of whom have autism and other complex needs. So we manage the best we can. X0 -
Sorry they didn't turn up @Firefly123! I hope they are able to get back in touch soon.

As no one came today for the assessment i'd advise you to ring DWP as soon as possible and tell them that no one came. I've heard of this happening before and they've actually gone to the wrong house and reported that no one was in the property when they arrived. If this happens it could cause problems and the health assessment providers could send your file back to DWP with a failure to attend. To protect yourself then please ring DWP and tell them what's happened today.
