Getting ADHD diagnosis in gov psych hospital or private clinic/hospital
Hi, I suspected that I may have ADHD since it has been affecting my daily life, studying and my self esteem ever since I entered uni life. I've remember I've struggled in academics as a child but not as worse as I get older. while I exceed well in academics, my only problem is how I'm not able to commit to my study and my task, as well as other daily task. I got my screening done online by a licensed therapist and told me I may showed sign of ADHD. I feel like I'm putting too much effort on most basic stuff than normal people and got bored easily with repetitive task like assignments to the point of delaying them.
I'm thinking of getting a proper diagnosis as I don't want it to affect my study and my future career as I involved alot in medical field. However, I don't know whether I should go to gov psych hospital like Sentosa or at SGH, or head to private hospitals/clinics.
I couldn't afford for private psychiatry clinic but I'm saving up just in case. Im considering going to sentosa or SGH first, but I have low expectations that the gov psychiatrist will ever take my problem seriously, or its just my anxiety trying to fool me.
To anyone who ever got their adult adhd diagnosis at Sentosa or SGH, please share your experience, just to ease my fear and anxiety.😔 This is important to me as what I'm struggling with has gotten me feeling self conscious about my performance as a student as well as a human being trying to function well in society 🙏 the least I can do is to get myself checked out instead of self diagnosing
