Amanda louise, in the UK it is all about the dx label not the symptoms/problem areas. you can only recieve specific treatment if your dx is one on their tick list, trust me i know all too well the difficulties of trying to get and the frustrations of being refused treatment which everyone acknowledges will benefit me simply because my dx is not one they on their list!
people here are treated by dx not symptoms. unless one of the likely symptoms for your dx label is depression you do not get treated for depressive symptoms. i was sent on an anxiety course because one of the recorded symptoms for someone with my dx is anxiety, i never had anxiety but because it is a classic symptom in most i had to go every week for two months and sit in a group listening to people who were on a completely different level than myself! waste of my time and waste of tax payers money, but hey it ticked a box on my treatment chart!
