I want get myself an official diagnosis on ADHD and an answer regarding whether I’m autistic.

Typically, a “10 minute test” takes me several hours. I spend a great deal of time contemplating the questions, filled with indecision. So I want to fill out the test before I even get to the psychologist’s office.

Which is why I plugged “official ADHD test” into a search engine, and got overwhelmed by the choices. And my main questions are:

  • do some websites offer a test they inaccurately describe as the official test? (If so, do those show up high on search results?)
  • do some websites offer the official test… and also augment the test with extra resources that help a cripplingly indecisive person answer more efficiently? (That would save me time.)

    When I got officially tested, it was deliberately long and enduring. The reason is that the symptoms surface once you lose the energy to mask them. On a focus/attention test, the results look very different 40 minutes in.
