I should have gotten tested months ago already, but executive dysfunction and anxiety kept me from making the phone call. It’s soooo expensive because of the way my insurance works (haven’t met my deductible). Also, I have to abstain from cannabis and alcohol for thirty days.
I’m hoping this is a worthwhile investment, since I’m pretty sure I have ADHD. In fact, I’m pretty sure ADHD is the number one problem in my life right now.
Just wanted to share and get some encouragement and empathy about this process!
It is. I went to a neuropsych and they ask you questions about childhood since they have to prove you had it and this isn’t something new and possibly temporary.
Afterwards, though, they run you through some memory recall tests to see where your trouble areas are. I’ve never felt so mind fucked in my life however it allowed them to validate that yes, I do actually have adhd combined and the problem areas I need to concentrate on in life.
