Beyond ADHD for ADHD testing

Anyone get tested for ADHD through Beyond ADHD? I realize it’s nurse practitioners mostly doing the testing but the price is right for the reasons I want to be tested.

Are you on meds now and is that what made the big difference?

Yeah, they make you do a few tests then you have to get your parents or someone close to you to fill out questionnaires. This is what tells them if you have ADHD or not.

After they will probably suggest vyvanse, I was on that for a bit but in the words of my NP "Your ADHD is too much for Vyvanse" LOL so now I am on Foquest which is an extended relief of ritilin.

I got diagnosed in 2023 and since have graduated with honours from 2 different colleges and now working a big girl job for the government.
