I read a lot of people on reddit’s r/adhd were they suffer with ADHD (or something similar, as they aren’t diagnosed) but can’t afford it. I read one that said they spend over US$ 1000 and had to stop looking because of the price.
I’m Brazilian, on the Brazilian private care, I was paying around 60USD for 1h talking to a doctor. A doctor that is fluent in English will probably charge more to treat international patients.
My full diagnose took around 10 visits, so it wasn’t super cheap in comparison, but it was very through. I can share a translated version of the report I got on private message if anyone is curious.

Hey guys, unfortunately advertising is not allowed here. It’s to protect our members from being exploited. I know that there can be legitimate good reasons to allow it, but I think starting a community called ADHD_resources would be a better way of going about it. And if its modded properly I will allow links to those posts as an exception.
That’s a good point. I dunno how I would be able know what is legit.
On a possible ADHD_resources it’s still better than googling directly, the other users can comment when something bad happens
Do you want to create and/or mod it?
TalkWithFrida is a resource for Canadians.
Beyond ADHD is another option, it is working great for me.
Thank you, I hope to check back and find a solution for me in the UK, as the NHS wait list is many years long, and private is so hard to find and expensive :-(
I’ll just keep barely surviving in my hole until I find some affordable help or die I guess xD
Hello fellow UK friend!
I found a private provider very easily. Google should be able to help you there.
But yes, also expensive 😞.
I have found it to be worth the cost. YMMV. But can’t put a price on healthy functioning.
