It is important to note that structured support from parents, schools, or authority figures can sometimes mask ADHD symptoms during childhood. Additionally, other conditions may mimic or conceal ADHD. It is estimated approximately 80% of individuals with ADHD may have a co-occurring condition, and around 50% may have multiple concurrent conditions.

You may have been diagnosed with other mental health conditions such as EUPD, bipolar disorder, depression, anxiety, or mood disorders. While there can be overlaps among these conditions, ADHD is a neurodevelopmental disorder that persists throughout a person's life. Certain psychiatric and neurodevelopmental conditions are more likely to co-occur with ADHD, but a comprehensive assessment is necessary to determine the diagnosis.

These tools are screening instruments and do not constitute a definitive diagnosis. Each case is reviewed individually, and a clinical discussion will be held over the phone to consider your personal history, subtle presentation details, and any relevant factors.

If ADHD is not diagnosed and another condition is suspected, we will provide information and guidance to help you access appropriate diagnostic services or treatment options. A summary of findings and supportive documentation will be provided to assist your next steps.
