This screener is based on the ASRS-v1.1 developed by the World Health Organization (WHO) and is used for educational purposes only. It is not a diagnostic tool. ADHD symptoms can overlap with anxiety, depression, trauma, poor sleep, and other conditions. A licensed provider can perform a full evaluation.

When to Seek an ADHD Evaluation
It may be time to seek help if focus problems, procrastination, forgetfulness, or impulsivity are affecting your school performance, work, relationships, or daily life. Many people do not realize how much ADHD symptoms are impacting them until the stress becomes overwhelming.
With the right support, many people experience meaningful improvement in focus, organization, emotional balance, and day-to-day functioning.
