If you’re in the US I can PM you the name of the service I used to get diagnosed. First attempt I was given what I later learned was a very outdated test, after which I was told “your job is too hard for someone with ADHD”.
It is infuriating. I don’t even know if I’d want the meds. But I’d like to have someone with expertise be like ‘yes, that thing you have thought you are dealing with your whole damn life, and is reflected in every damn ADHD post making you cry at the idea that you are not alone, is real’
My family doc unironically told me that adults can’t have adhd, and kids grow out of it. I don’t even know where to start.

I, too, would like to get my shit together 😶
Alas - I am in Canada. Many thanks though!
My province until very recently had the same stance and so all the docs did as well.
