What is ADHD, Its Signs & Who It Affects
ADHD (known as attention deficit hyperactivity disorder) is a neurodevelopmental condition that affects both children and adults.
It’s often identified in childhood, but many people reach adulthood without a diagnosis, only to realise that lifelong challenges may be linked to ADHD. Adult ADHD symptoms can also look different from those seen in children, with common symptoms in adults including difficulties with time management, organisation, and maintaining focus.
It’s estimated that over 2.5 million people have undiagnosed ADHD in the UK alone, with more seeking private ADHD diagnosis assessments for answers.
Common Signs and Symptoms
Everyone experiences ADHD differently, but common signs may include:
- Difficulty focusing or sustaining attention on tasks
- Forgetfulness, disorganisation, or frequently losing things
- Restlessness or feeling an inability to relax
- Acting on impulse without considering consequences
- Struggles with emotional regulation, such as frustration or low tolerance for stress
- Challenges meeting deadlines or managing workloads
These symptoms often lead to difficulties at work, in education, or within personal relationships.
Who It Affects
ADHD can affect people of all ages and backgrounds. Many adults with ADHD are high-achieving but may feel they are constantly masking or under greater stress than others. Left undiagnosed, ADHD can contribute to anxiety, depression, low self-esteem, or burnout.
At Eulas, our aim is to provide clarity, compassion, and evidence-based assessments that help you understand your challenges and move forward with confidence. Being properly diagnosed can open up access to effective treatment and support.
How to Get Assessed for ADHD as an Adult
Living with undiagnosed ADHD can be overwhelming. Difficulties with focus, organisation, impulsivity, or emotional regulation often affect relationships and careers. Unfortunately, NHS ADHD waiting times in Scotland can stretch for many months or even years.
At Eulas, we offer thorough assessments for adult ADHD conducted by highly experienced consultant psychiatrists. Each diagnostic assessment is performed by a qualified professional using a comprehensive clinical assessment to accurately diagnose ADHD. Our assessments follow NICE guidelines, meaning your diagnosis is recognised by the NHS.
We offer appointments in-person at our clinic or via secure online consultations, ensuring our service is accessible across Scotland and the wider UK.

Our Associations
NHS-Recognised Adult ADHD Assessments
When seeking a private ADHD diagnosis, it’s essential that your assessment is clinically robust, ethically delivered, and recognised beyond the private setting.
At Eulas, all adult ADHD assessments are carried out in line with NICE guidance and are recognised by the NHS. This ensures your assessment meets nationally accepted standards for diagnosing ADHD in adults.
What This Means for You
An NHS-recognised private ADHD assessment follows the same core diagnostic principles used within NHS services. At Eulas, this means:
- Assessments delivered exclusively by consultant psychiatrists
- Full compliance with NICE guidance for adult ADHD diagnosis
- Evaluation of symptoms across both childhood and adulthood
- A comprehensive written diagnostic report suitable for GP and NHS review
Our diagnostic reports are shared with GPs to support ongoing care, workplace adjustments, or future treatment planning.
Supporting Your Continuity of Care
We understand that many patients seek a private ADHD assessment due to long NHS waiting times, but still wish to access NHS services in the future. Our assessments are designed to support continuity of care wherever possible.
Reports are written clearly and professionally, with evidence-based treatment recommendations aligned with NHS practice.
Thorough, Ethical, and Patient-Centred
At Eulas, we do not offer rushed or generic ADHD assessments. Each assessment is comprehensive, personalised, and grounded in clinical best practice. Your psychiatrist will explore how ADHD symptoms affect your work, education, relationships, and emotional wellbeing not just whether diagnostic criteria are met.
Many adults come to us after years of unanswered questions or difficulties. Our role is to provide clarity, understanding, and a clear path forward through accurate diagnosis and evidence-based recommendations.
A Trusted Standard of Private ADHD Diagnosis
Our approach combines medical rigour with compassionate care. We are transparent about our process, our pricing, and our clinical standards. There are no shortcuts — only careful, ethical ADHD assessments you can trust.
If you are looking for a private adult ADHD diagnosis in the UK that is NHS-recognised, NICE-compliant, and delivered by experienced consultant psychiatrists, Eulas offers a standard of care designed to support both immediate clarity and long-term wellbeing.
ADHD Pre-Assessment Process
Before your adult ADHD assessment, you’ll begin with a comprehensive pre-assessment process designed to ensure the most accurate and helpful evaluation possible. This starts with completing several pre-assessment questionnaires, which gather detailed information about your ADHD symptoms, medical history, and how these challenges affect your daily life. These questionnaires help our team understand your unique experiences and identify patterns that may indicate adult ADHD.
You’ll also have a phone screening with our team. This conversation helps clarify whether an ADHD assessment is appropriate for you, explains the assessment process, and provides information about costs and what to expect during your evaluation.
