Hello, whilst speaking with a neighbour last night she mentioned to me that her son who is 21 has been diagnosed with attention deficit disorder and has similar problems to my son who is 20. I have tried researching this online but the majority of advice is for attention deficit hyperactivity disorder. If anyone could offer some advice on the best place to look for information this would be greatly appreciated. Many thanks. Alison
Hi @ADaviesquick78
Have you seen this?
All the best Nell
Hi @ADaviesquick78 welcome to the family hub Iād recommend your son starts with going to his GP and chatting through his symptoms/difficulties thereā¦? They should be able to refer him for further assessments if needed? Let us know how it goes
Thank you @frances_is_a_sibling the doctor is making a referral for my son to see a psychiatrist so hopefully we should get somewhere. I will keep you posted
Thatās good to hear @ADaviesquick78 - hope all goes OK
