Thankyou guys for the Info. I have been researching so much this weekend, so its so good to hear personal experiences.
So the process here, Im led to believe is that I am to convince my Doctor that I genuinely feel that I have ADD and he will then refer me to a specialist which can be a lengthy process (for which I will bug my GP weekly until I have a meeting arranged) The specialist will then determine if I should just try medication, which will likely be methylphenidate (Ritalin) or further Psychiatric evaluation will be needed.
Im more open to the Medication but Im concerned at this point about the side effects, namely Insomnia and Anxiety (I certainly dont mind about the weight loss
Again thanks for the Info to you all, Ill keep you posted.
@Toofat, Yorkshire is such a lovely place, known for the Hills and Dales, the UK is crossed by a North/South divide and us southeners are considered Soft by Northerners but I absolutely Love the Yorkshire Dales. Were a relatively small country but its still about 6 hours drive away!
