Mental health related. just seen a CPN and placed on the CBT waiting list. Her letter confirms this and she has seen my partner once. She makes mention the shyness will take longer.
Social Anxiety is the crux.
Needs help socially and on unfamiliar routes and familiar due to psychological distress.
Not much medical wise can be said other than diagnoses and awaiting therapy that MIGHT work.
Provided a letter explaining the situation as clear as I could.
trying to avoid the assessment as this will cause issues . Mentioned history of self harming. So I hope they can see this is one where an assessment will be a nightmare for the other half.
