Okay, this blew up!
I've had hundreds of people asking how to get a diagnosis as an adult so this mini-thread will explain how. https://twitter.com/Saraheboon/status/1332351652242796546

I got my diagnosis from @Psychiatry_UK
They do online diagnostic assessments.
You can be referred to them on the NHS (if UK based)
Details are below.
You can also book to see them privately https://www.psychiatry-uk.com/right-to-choose/

You can also ask your GP to refer you to local services, but you may have a very long wait for an assessment.

As I am UK based, I'm not sure how the process works in other countries (sorry)
I've started a thread here, so hopefully people can share how an ADHD diagnosis works in their country https://twitter.com/Saraheboon/status/1332651557658259458
