  1. Review titled Not Listened to

    by Anonymous - Posted on 10 April 2024

    Despite having my ADHD diagnosis for over 10 years, wasted a lot of time and resources re-diagnosing me. Despite having been treated effectivlely with medication with minimal side effects I was offered a series of drugs that caused horrible side effects, leading to a deterioration in my mental health. Through the process I did not feel part of the decision-making process for my own treatment and was told it's this or nothing on several occasions.

  2. Review titled Adult Autism diagnosis service that doesn’t assess

    Rated 1 star out of 5

    by Michael D - Posted on 03 April 2023

    I’m a mid-40’s male, with a history of anxiety and depression. According to this service that means I can’t be autistic, and my anxiety and depression can’t be caused by autism-although of course this is really common! I sent in a number of asd questionnaires (Cat-Q, Aq-10, Aspie, Raads-R etc.) where I scored really, really highly, indicating a likely asd-on every single one. Apparently that’s just my anxiety and depression. Apparently one would expect someone with anxiety and depression to score highly on asd tests? Well, actually that’s nonsense! Asd questionnaires ask about Asd, but this service’s triage panel apparently knows better than the people who designed and tested these clinical tools. Perhaps they should contact them and make them aware that their tests only test for anxiety and depression and not Asd, or that the Asd test only works if you don’t have anxiety or depression?? It’s an absolute joke, and clearly designed to reduce waiting lists by bouncing people immediately. In a rather patronising letter to my Gp, it was explained that I could always refer myself to mental health services-wow! Amazingly helpful insight-not! I’m left without help, without hope, and needing to find the money to get a private assessment because this service is utterly unfit for purpose! Not only that, but they could not give two hoots how this my impact the mental health they blame for my social issues, you know, the ones they can assess without ever having met me! Beware this service, and if you want help for an adult diagnosis, go private
