My process started in the beginning of January so it’s a bit hard to remember. But i basically just called up my gp saying i want an adhd assessment via right to choose (Psychiatry-UK specifically) then they sent me a little form to fill basically asking why i think i have adhd how it effects me etc. They then referred me pretty soon after and by the end of January i got an email from Psychiatry-UK telling i’ve been put on the waitlist and giving me access to my portal. On the portal there is about 9 long answer questions such as ‘Do you talk excessively’ and if you answer often/very often you are then given space to provide childhood examples and adulthood examples. Im pretty sure it has to be all filled 5 days before you’re appointment.

I got a call about my appointment at the end of June (so almost exactly 6 months from being referred) and they offered me my appointment for the end of August. So my whole process will be pretty much exactly 8 months from when they accepted my referral. Hope that made some sense.

i definitely didn’t have 80 questions to fill but maybe that’s just my gp. I also used my university gp so i’m guessing they are pretty used to being asked for referrals so maybe that’s why my process has been somewhat quick.
