E2 - How can I find out for sure if I have ADHD?
Manage episode 404522800 series 3555828
Exploring ADHD sparked my curiosity, and as I recognised many familiar traits, I embarked on the journey of obtaining a formal diagnosis. In this episode we talk about the mix of emotions and hurdles navigating the path to understanding and managing adult ADHD.
In this episode:
- Navigating the complex world of ADHD diagnosis, exploring NHS wait times, and considering private options.
- Using the ASRS questionnaire for a preliminary self-assessment, with a score indicating ADHD likelihood.
- Coping with concerns about media coverage of private ADHD clinics.
- The potential challenges of disclosure at work.
- Seeking medical guidance, receiving support from a virtual GP, and obtaining referrals for a diagnosis.
