The psychiatrist will ask you questions regarding your family history, the impact of your ADHD symptoms on your daily life and any relationship problems or mental health issues that you might be experiencing.

Medication
The medication process is an essential part of the journey for many who are seeking an official ADHD diagnosis. It isn't always easy to obtain an appointment with a psychiatrist on the NHS. NHS waiting lists can be extremely long and GPs might be reluctant to refer their patients to specialist services.
One way to get around this is to ask your GP to refer you to Right to Choose (see psychiatry-uk and ADHD 360). This means that you can choose a provider that offers an assessment and titration service. This will help you to save time and also be more convenient, particularly when you are on a tight work schedule.
Once you have been identified as a candidate for this treatment, your chosen clinician will assess you and decide whether or not you need to be adjusted on your medication. You'll need to complete forms that are different for each provider however the most commonly used ones are self-reporting questionnaires and medical histories going back to childhood and adulthood. These will help your clinician determine any issues that could mean you shouldn't take ADHD medications if they're prescribed.
If you are being titrated, the medication will be a combination stimulants and non-stimulant drugs. They will be carefully tested and monitored to find the most suitable combination for you, taking into consideration any medical conditions you may have. The titration process can be long and may require a number of additional appointments before the dose becomes stable.
Based on the type of medication you are taking, follow up appointments could be scheduled monthly or quarterly. Your clinician will check that you are stable with the medication, note any side effects you've experienced, and make any needed adjustments to ensure that you remain on a safe dose. You will also be required to attend a regular health check which can include blood pressure readings, pulse and weight as well as an annual check-up.
For some individuals it could be that they are content with their medication and don't need an additional discussion regarding their titration. If you're looking to discuss your titration or treatment plan more thoroughly it is possible that you'll be sent back to the private doctor who performed your initial assessment. If this occurs, the titration appointment will be part of their consultation fee and they will be given their medication on a private prescription (see Consultation fees above).
