    There’s also a chance that they continue to believe it’s treatment resistant depression and anxiety and refuse to even consider ADHD. That was my experience over a decade and at least a dozen doctors and therapists until I specifically sought out an evaluation. It’s also harder for women to get diagnosed, so that was probably a factor.

    I went through ADHD Online and got treated through them a while, then I found a psychiatrist who specializes in ADHD/ASD. He said ADHD Online wasn’t scientific enough for him and had me do another evaluation which was also online and the 2nd part had to be done by a loved one. I’ve also heard of people whose doctors did accept the ADHD Online evaluation, so ymmv. ADHD Online was $200 for the evaluation, $200 for the first appointment, and $100 for follow up appointments, so I would recommend them if you’re desperate and can afford it.
