Respectfully, this is a wrong take. I had to see multiple different doctors growing up before I was properly diagnosed, but i also know people that were lucky enough to get an accurate diagnosis and proper treatment after their first dr visit. It very much depends on the doctor, person and illness

I was diagnosed on my first appt with ADHD. He asked me why I thought I had it. All the coping mechanisms I utilize. Then I received a very low dose of Adderall. It made me feel like a zombie. I last 30 days and stopped using it. I’m still trying to figure myself out and I always felt like I have OCD. But I never wanted to go back after that. Your page has helped me a ton.

You have to give a ICD-10 code to bill. So you don’t bill for the first visit?

I had a psychiatrist who refused to test me because he said I probably do have it but I "didn't need another label." Once he left the practice, it took me a few sessions to feel comfortable to ask for an evaluation but ultimately decided to and I told him I felt I did need a label to understand my body plus as a recreation therapist I know that there are some coping skills for anxiety that are contraindicated for OCD such as reassurance.

Hi! Would you like to be my doctor? Kay thanks! Lol based on your videos maybe I have both OCD and ADHD. Even though I’m only diagnosed with ADHD. 🙃🙂🙃🙂

I was diagnosed as a child by the school and county and have been on and off my adhd meds since. Do I really need to see a psychiatrist?

The challenge is that in a very broken system, patients are often desperate for any change, and waiting for three to four sessions isn’t realistic. The entire system has to change for this to work.
