Hello everyone,
Lovely to meet you all.
I'm 53 and was diagnosed with OCD in 2020 and ADHD last October. My GP had to send two referral applications for the ADHD assessment because my local mental health team said the OCD course which I completed in 2021 should help me to 'feel better'. I felt I was being fobbed off by the team but, persisted with the assessment which took nearly six hours spread over two sessions, 8 weeks apart. I know the NHS is stretched beyond ability at the moment but, I don't think I have the strength to go through the whole thing again for an autism diagnosis. I haven't received a report yet from the ASHD diagnosis, I did request a letter from the psychologist which had four sentences on it, is this usual?
Thanks peeps,
Rachel
