When I received my assessment results just before Christmas it stated that I should also be assessed for ADHD, as I demonstrated a significant overlap.
Today I spoke to my GP about being referred and got a surprising amount of resistance. Baring in mind this he has my full assessment results. He seemed to want me to justify why I felt I should be referred and to describe in detail the difficulties I experience.
Eventually he forwarded me an email with a questionnaire that I'd already completed for my ASD assessment. He also wants "a few paragraphs" to explain my thoughts on my answers.
I can appreciate that they don't want to waste resources but this seemed a bit much.
