He not only listened to my husbands condition but actually helped him rebuild his confidence and unlike other drs he actually helped my husband understand his disorder and learn how to cope.with it.

Low quality, mostly African staff with minimal empathy. A hospital that treats those in crisis with a punishing undertone. This hospital will be found out, like many other abusers. It may just take time.

Be very careful of what you're told by anyone here, and get a second opinion, possibly privately, it'll be worth it in the long run. After much of my life struggling and managing depression and anxiety with therapy, and trying to find an answer in some way, I had an assessment for ADHD with Dr Susannah Whitwell at the Maudsley hospital 8 years ago, the result was supposedly negative. The handling of the assessment was shocking, taking time off work for appointments, but then they were cancelled multiple times, with any follow-up help being removed. After struggling on for many years, only 6% of GPs having any training in this, so their help and understanding were zero. My wife encouraged me to go privately for a second opinion, and the consultant psychiatrist for adult ADHD diagnosed me with severe ADHD, medication aside the diagnosis was a massive relief and allowed me to appreciate and understand things I didn't know. I understand Dr Sunsannah Whitwell also works for The Effra Clinic, I would recommend steering clear of here also. From Dr Russel Barkley, a clinical psychologist who is a clinical professor of psychiatry and one of the foremost voices in ADHD - Compared to other killers from a public health standpoint untreated ADHD is bad - 20 cigarettes a day - 6.5 years Diabetes/ obesity - 2 years Elevated blood cholesterol - 9 months ADHD is worse than the top 5 killers combined, and that's after you take into account anyone who is at higher risk for accidental injury and suicide. ADHD averagely shortens someone's life by - 13 years rds of ADHD people die 21 years younger than average - However, once you get diagnosed and find the right help, life can only get better and quite often much better. Compared to other neurological conditions it's the most treatable with the most amount of medications.
