Also available for Download Getting an Adult ADHD Assessment - Xavier Cheveley Camoys EPUB version.
Description & Overview
Many adults reach a point where they begin to wonder if their lifelong struggles with focus, restlessness, or forgetfulness might have a name. This book is for anyone considering an adult ADHD assessment — whether you've been referred by your GP, are thinking about going private, or are simply trying to make sense of a nagging suspicion. It walks you through every stage of the process, from deciding whether to seek an assessment and choosing a clinician, to preparing your evidence, understanding the diagnostic criteria, and receiving the outcome. You'll learn what to expect in the appointment itself, how to answer questions honestly, and what happens if you're diagnosed — or not. Written with warmth and honesty, it acknowledges the anxiety, hope, and self-doubt that often accompany this journey. Both identity-first and person-first language are respected throughout, because your preference is the right one. This is not a checklist or a self-diagnosis tool; it's a companion to help you navigate the system with confidence and clarity. Part of The Late Diagnosis Library.
