How many 'assesments' are needed?

[Evie loves Sam]

I've been 'assessed' by 15 psychiatrists - private and government. 15 years being 'assessed'. 6 months hospitalised and observed.

My diagnosis from all of them is PTSD.

Is that enough 'assessing' and now they can move onto treating and me healing?

Hmm that's a good question. I've had 3 assessments in the past few months and have a 4th on Friday.

How does your ex have the power to get you assessed?
Is this through the family court? You can argue against further assessment if it is through that. Argue how:
it is not necessary how it won't provide anything that isn't already known, that it is not needed for a judge to make a decision, there is no gap in the evidence to warrant a further assessment.
Arguing that it is another sign of his control over you is something to consider too - but there is risk saying that truth because it would mean a judge needing to confirm if he is controlling and abusive towards you. Better to stick to legal arguments of what is nessecary for a judge to make a decision.

If it is for another reason, then what power or authority does he have to say you need this?

For family courts.

For family courts. I already wrote that in an application. He wants me assessed as having something else.

Sounds like the wrong party is being assessed. Are kids involved?

For 15 years he has said I self duagnosed PTSD and convinced me I havedelusiobal disorders. He started at me afain demanding I needpsychiatric assessment. I didnt. Turnes out I was akways duagnised PTSD and never delusiobal dusorders. My gp hid this in paper archuves and it was only agterco sidetabke child proceefonfs that they actually producred it. I didnt bring Norahs not know what a SAR was before that time. My diagnisus was acute PTSD, with fatigue induced paranioa. He sgamed me foe 15 years about not acceoting a duagnosis of delusiobal disirder. Now, he has taken custidy of my daughter and convinced a court I have delusional dusorders and multiple oersobalities. He dissapeared with my daughter. The court dud nit make that opinion based on my injcal duagnisis. I provided multiple letters sayi g I had anxuety, depression and trauma. The sicual witkers were truggered and fou d no safeguarding issues with me. But he still claimed my voicing that he was gaslighting me abd hitting my daughter was delusion. Apart of my dusorder. I gave been assessed now by 15 clinical psychiatrists and they all say PTSD. Probkem is I have a paraniod element. I know it is rooted in facts though snd the dustietiobs of my ex. I will soon be assessed by psych 16, as I relicated abd they do their own assessments. But he wants me assessed as a danger to him my daughter. He has made every allegation u der the sun - he proved none of them. I feel attacked and unsupported by the system, that they let me diwn as it harmed me. If that origonal psychiatrist letter wasnt hidden in paper archives by the nhs, and correctly ekectronically recirded, it would have proved that I was right. Now, I fight for my daughter. All I hear from hom is that I need to be assessed more, that I am the devil and abusive. Im not. I got angry and yelled at him after being poked, accused, threatened, given ultimatums and constantly blamed abd criticised for his actiobs, my daughters actiobs, other oeopkes actiobs. He nade up stories about hiw I behave - everything g to shame ne as 'innapropriate'. I am really struggling today. All I hear is hus voice in my head shaming me, accusing me. Over and iver again. I am still being traunatused so AI cant help me.
