Heya, thanks for the reply. I totally understand a reluctance to going to a GP, I did quite a lot of research and took in a few sheets of research with me and how that specifically related to me so I could back up my queries, I would say even though they were a little dismissive it is still worth talking to them, you may have a more open GP than me and if anything it forced my hand to going private for an assessment.
Where I live in London I paid £445 at the ADHD Center, there are other options but this was the one I found most “affordable” and with good reviews. Although It is not a cheap process at all, being able to be seen within a week is a relief if it is something you feel you need to find answers on to help move forward.
Thanks for the advice, as you say I have no doubt it has thorough testing and as they are specialists they are trained to pick up on the signs etc, just me wanting to make sure I understand and get my head around it, I think I tend to have a reluctance to accept things immediately 🙂
Good luck with your own journey, I hope you manage to find the answers you are looking for.
