In my diagnosis, 2003 San Diego, nobody had to write a letter

Only the psychiatrist and I were involved

That might depend on the year, location, or provider

You could ask over the phone about witnesses required for diagnosis

Plenty of people are in your situation

The original posters profile says, England. The protocol is different over there

Besides often relatives are biased, dead, mentally ill, in jail, in bad health, out of contact




:mrgreen:


Fair point about the profile being from England, and surely you must be right in the sense that one cannot be barred from proper examination simply by unfortunate familial circumstances. I will still likely worry about it!

Before you go to the office, you can phone the psychologist and ask if letters are required

Explain that your relatives won't write letters

That way you don't waste $$$
