Hello! I’m also in the UK and I’ve talked to three medical professionals who have dismissed my concerns about ADD OUT OF HAND!

“I don’t think you have ADD, I think you’re depressed…” This was after asking no questions. And she just dismissed my concerns when I said “Don’t you think it’s worth investigating?” Apparently not.

I have a follow up appointment with the GP this morning – they prescribed me anti-depressants and this time I’m printing off the questionnaire results from this site and the info from NHS choices.
