I want get myself an official diagnosis on ADHD and an answer regarding whether I’m autistic.
Typically, a “10 minute test” takes me several hours. I spend a great deal of time contemplating the questions, filled with indecision. So I want to fill out the test before I even get to the psychologist’s office.
Which is why I plugged “official ADHD test” into a search engine, and got overwhelmed by the choices. And my main questions are:
- do some websites offer a test they inaccurately describe as the official test? (If so, do those show up high on search results?)
- do some websites offer the official test… and also augment the test with extra resources that help a cripplingly indecisive person answer more efficiently? (That would save me time.)
that indecisiveness would be taken into account in a professional screening
These words have been helpful to me. I kind of stopped worrying about it after reading this, and just started focusing on getting myself a referral and appointment. It’s ridiculously slow getting any kind of appointment through my healthcare provider (and I still haven’t seen them yet) but I appreciate not having to worry about “should I be preparing for this?” in the interim.
