Hi all I've recently joined. I finally nearly got myself a referral. My doctor has given me a form to complete which is sent off to decide what happens. The form is a AQ-10 autism spectrum questionnaire: www.nice.org.uk/guidance/cg142/resources/autism-spectrum-quotient-aq10-test-pdf-186582493Whilst I find I relate strongly to the ADHD symptoms (particularly inattentive), I don't relate as strongly with the questions based off of autism, I score 7-8/10 being unsure on some answers and you need 8+ to be considered. How did others get through a referral, did you complete this same questionnaire? Would appreciate hearing from you about it! Harry

Isn't there an ADHD specific form?
Ask the doctor if he has ADHD himself.

Hiya, I would ring your GP surgery and double check what they have put on the referral and ask if they have an adhd form you need to fill in. Hope you get sorted, Lottie

Yep as per previously mentioned I would check for a specific ADHD form, I talked to my doctor before Christmas and was given one to completed and hand back in. I'd be ready for a wait though after you submit your forms, as Covid appears to have held absolutely everything else up, at least where I am it has!
