Important reminder

A positive screener is not a diagnosis. A negative screener does not rule one out. ADHD is a clinical diagnosis made by a registered medical practitioner through history-taking, clinical interview, collateral information, and where useful, neuropsychological testing. Use these tools as a starting point for a conversation, not the conversation itself.
