Well, I visited my family dr last week and he referred me to a local psychologist for diagnosis. However, when I tried to make an appointment there, I was told they don’t diagnose ADD! So, I started looking via internet) at providers in the closest city to us, but some didn’t even have any schooling!! So, I went to the CHADD website and looked for progams at universities in our state. I now have an appointment there on Nov 8. It will cost me $500 and it’s unlikely that my insurance will help much with that. But, at least I am working my way to a diagnosis.
