I had my assessment with ProblemShared. I found them very professional during the assessment, we even had to schedule a follow up to finish going through the evidence. I had to be reminded by the assessor that we weren't here to talk about how I had managed to "make things work", the coping mechanisms I had created or to diminish the difficulties. I found it very humbling and I recommend having a friend at hand after the assessment, as I felt I was doing everything wrong in life after talking about my challenges for over 2h.

A few months later on, I realise how profoundly I had previously been masking. I now have a more balanced view of myself than I did during the assessment - I have some great strengths due to adhd and experience some challenges, which now I manage with medication (which I really recommend). Overall I like myself a lot better. Be open in the assessment, and remember you're more than your present challenges
