ADHD Self-Assessment

A gentle tool to help you understand your experiences

Welcome! This questionnaire is designed to help you reflect on your experiences with attention and focus.

Please answer honestly based on how you've felt over the past 6 months. There are no right or wrong answers.

This is not a diagnostic tool. Only a qualified healthcare professional can diagnose ADHD.
