    Thanks for your response, did you choose adhd 360 because of the waiting time or based on how close it is to you?

      No I didn’t think about looking at specifically in person places, saw that they were suitable for most of my needs and that they could do remote assessments too. At my time of looking for places I actually had a very limited choice, I can’t remember which ones but I did have other preferred ones but they were just not accepting at the time at all.

      Wish I could be more help, the doctors definitely do just throw you in the deep end to figure it out on your own.

      I just recently had my assessment with ADHD360 - I had picked them because at the time they had the shortest waiting list (although my GP was slow so I was delayed…)

      I found the whole process quite smooth. Some online assessments and questionnaires, and an input for health data (height/weight BP,HR) - they sent me a home blood pressure machine for this.

      The assessment itself was something I had been stressing over but my assessor was friendly, and anytime I got stuck he would ask a probing or clarifying question which was very useful.

      Best of luck!
