Practicing and preparing for the interview.

[gnitelpmoc]

I just filed my asylum application, and I'm getting worried and anxious about the interview.

The story I wrote on my declaration is extremely personal. I've never shared with anyone, but my lawyer and psychologist.

I have been intentionally blocking out the memories for the past couple of years.

Now that I need to recall details about the incidents and describe convincingly to the asylum office, I feel sad and frustrated. I'm worried that I'll be inconsistent because my memory is hazy.

Do you know if there's a free, annonymous counseling center where I can practice talking about it?

I would say watch movie "fear of persecution" and you can have practice interviews with your lawyer, that really helps. i dont know any counseling center where you can practice, i dont think so there is one. good luck.
