Anxious and stressed out due to doing vocational skills group...
It doesn't help that everything is so formally structured and there is so much stuff you are expected to get your head round and do which i am finding hard due to certain cognitive difficulties.
The problem being that the so called mh professionals won't even take on board how the social anxiety/cognitive problems are making doing this an uphill struggle and a fruitless exercise.
They have their agenda which in turn is the government's agenda and any problems are to be glibly and dismissively swept ahead.

It seems to me that there's only one way around this, and that is to simply not go along with it. Maybe you can do that inside your head only, so that you do not have to butt heads with the "authorities," at least not immediately. I don't think there is one way only to vocational competence. But I don't know your actual situation.
