To seek a diagnosis in my 50’s

Can anyone recommend an online ADHD assessment? I’m ready to throw money at it, not after meds, just a bit of self-compassion and insight after swinging by the seat of my pants for 50 years.

Do you mean you want to pursue a proper private diagnosis for ADHD, or do you want an online screening test that’s often used as an indicator but isn’t an actual diagnosis?

The actual diagnosis procedure will include an actual conversation and also interviewing family members/close friends too.

I used Berkeley Psychiatrists, when you say online you know it’s video calls if not in person?

Are you in England? If so just go to your GP and ask to be assessed via Right to choose. Usually takes less than 6 months that way.

ADHD direct -terrible name but they’re fully compliant with standards etc. They follow the DSM5

I’m in Wales, I’m after a diagnosis so a video consultation could be fine

I made similar enquiries recently. I was told it would be a 3-hour assessment. PM if you want details

SEIK Psychiatry. My DH was diagnosed with ADD by them. Very easy clinic to deal with, very professional and transparent pricing.
