Not sure if my anxiety is fixed

[Julian87]

I've been on an SSRI for 6 months and am about to take the neuropsychologist eval. I'm not sure if it's the stress of getting ready for the eval and going back to work or what but I feel pretty anxious and I'm worried my ssri isn't working. My psychiatrist thinks I'm at a good dose but I think it might be better to increase it now rather than get back to work and then have to do the whole process again. I can function just fine but I won't really know how my anxiety is until I'm back to work. Should I tell this to my neuropsychologist? Will they fail me because I'm not sure if I have reasonable anxiety or not? What say you?

Julian, do some lumosity. It'll get you a bit more familiar with the TYPES of things you will be doing in the eval. If you seriously don't think you're ready, though, POSTPONE. It's a lotta $$s.

This is for someone who’s already a pilot?

I think you should delay this test until you feel more confident.
