If you, your child or someone you support has been on a ADHD or Autism waiting list at any point over the last 14 years, we want to hear from you. Take our survey today.
@Grace_ADHDNoN@ward_shane Autism includes social communication difficulties, which is not part of ADHD. What evidence have you for ADHD being part of autism?
@Grace_ADHDNoN For CAMHS where we live, it's a 14 month wait to see a psychiatrist. Mental health is best treated early. 14 months - after waiting to be even seen by CAMHS to add to the wait list - adds to the severity of the mental health condition. Earlier intervention is needed.
@Grace_ADHDNoN@stellaomalley3 I can see he says from age 4 but the child also has other diagnoses including learning difficulties, so was probably picked up by Paediatrics early. It is very unusual to get a diagnosis in the UK at this age for ADHD.
@Grace_ADHDNoN@stellaomalley3 From Alder Hey Children's hospital. It's very hard to get a diagnosis before age 6 in the UK. ADHD can be suspected earlier.
@kokeshimum You need to have booked special assistance to get through quicker - and it will say special assistance on the ticket. Yes, maybe some people haven't booked but wear a lanyard. That's for the airline to sort as it gives them no right to go through quicker.
Some MPs go on holiday & not feel the need to make performative outrage videos about Women's spaces being protected, but 'Summer of Sex' campaigner Samantha Niblett couldn't resist the chance to make sure people don't forget about her & her opinions #parody
