Hi. I have been wondering how to get an assessment for neurodivergence as I seem to struggle with some day-to-day things. I seem to relate to a lot of memes from the adhd and autism communities. I also seem to have a good amount of traits that overlap with autism and adhd.
How did you get your diagnosis? Do you have any advice regarding obtaining an assessment?
talk to your GP or fnp and get a referral. Some will just prescribe you but I’d suggest finding someone to talk to as well. They can help you with aspects the medicine can’t. I was prescribed and never had any real treatment unless I got in trouble at school. This led to me ditching it every few months thinking I was fine when I wasn’t. Obviously this is more expensive and everyone is different so ymmv.
