Mental Health Assessment

    Hi, I'm going to be going for a mental health assessment (for depression, social anxiety and Asperger's syndrome) and I'm just wondering about a few things.

    What exactly does such an assessment involve? Also, roughly how long would I have to wait before the assessment? I went to the doctor on Thursday.

    I've heard that in America it includes a physical examination but not in the UK. What is the case here?

    I've told the doctor about having suicidal thoughts and self-harming. How in depth will I be asked about that?

    Thanks for any helpful answers.
