Where can i go to get tested for adhd and how?

Your doctor!: Your doctor can diagnose you as adhd is a clinical diagnosis. This means that by hearing your story and ruling out other issues, he or she can make the diagnosis. There is no specific test required.

Ideal Option: Various other disorders can masquerade as adhd: adhd behavioral symptoms overlap widely with symptoms of other disorders such as anxiety, depression, learning disabilities, etc. Also it's possible to have adhd *and* one or more other disorders. If you want the best 4 yourself, i'd recommend getting a good psychological assessment. Ask around 4 psychs known 4 their psychological assessment skills.
