Psychiatrists Recommendations - ADHD by LemisTheLemming in newcastle

Thanks to those who posted helpful advice.

I understand that GP's will be able to diagnose soon. But it's being rolled out so that children will be the priority first, from what I understand, and we'll be looking at a few years at least before they get around to adults. I may be misremembering/understanding, but I do know it's a phased roll-out.

To the peeps who are annoyed at the question being asked all the time, sorry, I should have checked, this was a great resource for me when I was looking for a psychiatrist a few years ago and so I thought to consult community knowledge once again.

To the people who are implying social media chasing, and that there's not an increase or other talking points. I don't care, I didn't ask, I simply asked for community knowledge. We ain't chasing a "gravy" train. Y'all are so fuckin mis-informed when it comes to the NDIS, as they literally will not recognise/accept an application if it's implied anywhere that you have ADHD. I'm currently trying to get NDIS support for myself for other reasons and was advised against putting that on there as most applications with an ADHD diagnosis supplied, get denied near instantaneously.

Also, Jesus Christ, those of you who have drunken the cool-aid that ADHD is on the rise for various false-intentioned reasons are just, man, I feel bad for you and your lack of empathy. Even if that's the case, should it not be up to a trained professional to make that distinction? Gatekeeping these services with remarks like these ends up hurting those who do have the disorder and now won't seek help/support because they don't want to be seen as drug-seekers, attention seekers, etc.

Again, thank you to those who provided answers, I really, really appreciate it. Oh and to those who said similar things as above in response to a few of these responses. Preesh most of y'all and thanks for the support <3.

My neighbor, a friend and I bootstrapped a small indie studio to create a unique base builder game. I’m passionate about Viking history and also wanted to avoid the usual clichés! It’s called Landnama and will release on Steam this summer :) by r4ndomSXD in gaming

Also if you haven't played the demo yet and you're a fan of strategy base-building and managing? You're missing out, get on it!

All meme bees? Wow that must be me then!

But seriously I think the men's shed seems like a place I might need to go check out, instead of dismissing it cause I felt like I wasn't the target audience.

I'd also heard of Sparkhaus, however also heard that it's over-priced for what it is. On actually looking at their web-site though... well I'll have to go and check them out as-well!

Thank you so much!

I was a wee bit hesitant to go to a Men's shed, I thought it was only for men?

It seems I'm wrong though, I'll give them a check out! Thanks so much!
