All you need to know about an ADHD Assessment, Diagnosis, Medication and Titration

** All details of how to sign up for my brand-new, groundbreaking ADHD Women's Wellbeing Hormone Series are now on my website**

In today's bonus episode and after the BBC's Panorama ADHD clinics programme this week, I wanted to share as much practical and up-to-date information from Vicki George, a clinical specialist nurse, independent nurse prescriber and founder of The ADHD Nurse.

  • Who can diagnose ADHD?
  • How Vicki works as an ADHD clinical and prescriber nurse
  • The ADHD diagnosis process and the frustration with the NHS waiting lists
  • What happens to us with medication and titration after an ADHD
  • The referral and assessment process
  • Gaslighting ourselves with ADHD
  • Fears around medication
  • The support we can access from the NHS and privately
  • Red flags to look out for if we're questioning an ADHD diagnosis.

If you find this podcast a helpful resource and you'd like to see it continue to grow with more guests, solo episodes and further information, I'd love it if you could show your appreciation via this gratitude link. As The ADHD Women's Wellbeing Podcast is entirely self-funded and self-produced with some amazing editing by my editor, Faith - it does take a lot of time, effort, love, hard work and money to ensure a weekly episode comes to you every Thursday. 

I'd love to bring this podcast to you full of integrity and advert-free to ensure you get the most authentic conversation without listening to adverts you may not be interested in. By showing your appreciation through this link, I can continue to bring you the most up-to-date and relevant information I can and keep helping so many of you. Any support is gratefully received and goes to helping our incredible community become more supported, empowered and educated.
