Empower Differently Wired Minds

Can I get a diagnosis without an assessment?

To get a diagnosis, one has to be assessed by a psychiatrist or psychologist in a clinical setting.

However, if you have reservations about taking the plunge, you can start with a simple online non-diagnostic self-test.

Please note that it not definitive and you would still need to see a mental health professional for a formal diagnosis.

"Differently Wired Minds is more than a book — it is a collective voice of the ADHD community in Singapore.

By sharing struggles, strengths, and strategies, we hope to inspire greater empathy and understanding. As a fundraising effort, it also helps us continue the important work of supporting ADHDers and their families.”
