Free ADHD check · ASRS-v1.1 symptom checker

Not sure if you have ADHD?

If you have ever wondered “how do I know if I have ADHD?”, this free ADHD check is a good place to start. It uses the Adult ADHD Self-Report Scale (ASRS-v1.1) Symptom Checker, developed with the World Health Organisation. Part A is the 6-question screener; Part B adds 12 optional questions for more detail. Answer about how you’ve felt over the last 6 months and we’ll show your result instantly. Ready Health will get a copy of your results, which they will store safely on file.

Part A
The ADHD screener — questions 1–6
These six questions are the ASRS-v1.1 screener and are the most predictive of ADHD. Please answer all six.
Part B · Symptom checklist — questions 7–18Optional. Adds detail on symptom severity and day-to-day impact.

Please answer all 6 Part A questions and add your name, number and email so we can share your result.

When you submit, your answers and contact details are sent securely to Ready Health, who will store a copy of your results safely on file. They are used only to support your care. This checker is not a diagnosis.

The Adult ADHD Self-Report Scale (ASRS-v1.1) Symptom Checklist is a recognised screening tool only. A positive screen does not confirm ADHD, and a negative one does not rule it out — only a full clinical assessment can give you an answer. Developed in conjunction with the World Health Organisation.

How our assessments work

A thorough, clinically robust ADHD assessment

Every Ready Health ADHD assessment is built around recognised diagnostic standards and delivered by clinicians qualified in ADHD — so your result is one you and your GP can rely on.

NICE-aligned standards

All assessments follow NICE guidelines — the same clinical standards used within the NHS — so your diagnosis carries proper clinical weight.

DIVA-5 & DSM-5 criteria

Assessments are completed using DIVA-5 and DSM-5 diagnostic criteria, the structured, internationally recognised tools for diagnosing ADHD.

Specialist clinicians

Carried out by qualified nurses or clinical pharmacists, all of whom hold recognised ADHD specialist qualifications.

Fast, clear outcome

A diagnosis is typically confirmed at the end of your appointment, with your full written report issued within 48 hours.

Unhurried appointments

Appointments typically last 1–2 hours, giving your clinician time to assess thoroughly and answer your questions.

School input for children

Children’s assessments require school input. Questionnaires that can be sent to the school are emailed to you upon booking.

Common questions

Private ADHD assessment FAQs

Do I need a referral for a private ADHD assessment?
No. You do not need a GP referral to book a private ADHD assessment with Ready Health. You can book directly online, choose online or face-to-face, and self-refer as an adult, or as a parent on behalf of a child.
How much does a private ADHD assessment cost?
An adult (16+) online ADHD consultation with report is £499 and face-to-face is £699. A child (6+) online ADHD consultation with report is £649 and face-to-face is £849. Every assessment includes a full written diagnostic report.
Can I get a same-day ADHD assessment and how quickly will I know?
Appointments can usually be booked quickly with no NHS-style waiting list. A diagnosis is typically confirmed verbally at the end of your appointment, and your full written report is issued within 48 hours.
Are ADHD assessments online or face-to-face?
Both. Online ADHD assessments are available UK-wide by secure video. Face-to-face assessments are carried out at our clinic at 22 High Street, Standish, Wigan, serving Wigan, Standish, Chorley, Leyland, Preston, Bolton and Warrington.
What ages do you assess for ADHD?
We assess children from age 6, adolescents aged 12 to 16, and adults aged 16 and above. A parent or guardian must be involved throughout for anyone under 18.
What clinical standards do your ADHD assessments follow?
All assessments follow NICE guidelines — the same clinical standards used within the NHS — and are completed using DIVA-5 and DSM-5 diagnostic criteria. They are carried out by qualified nurses or clinical pharmacists who hold recognised ADHD specialist qualifications.
How long does an ADHD assessment take?
Appointments typically last 1 to 2 hours, giving the clinician time to complete a thorough, structured assessment and discuss the outcome with you.
Do you assess children, and is school input needed?
Yes, we assess children from age 6. Children’s assessments require school input. Questionnaires that can be completed by the school are emailed to you upon booking so they can be returned ahead of the appointment.
I already have an ADHD diagnosis — can you help with medication?
Yes. If you already hold a recognised ADHD diagnosis, our private ADHD titration and medication management service can review your report and continue your treatment, online UK-wide or in person in Wigan.
Is there a free online ADHD test or check?
Yes. Our free ADHD check on this page uses the Adult ADHD Self-Report Scale (ASRS-v1.1) Symptom Checker, developed with the World Health Organisation. It takes a few minutes, gives an instant result, and is a useful first step — but it is a screening tool, not a diagnosis. A full assessment is needed to confirm ADHD.
Is the online ADHD self-check questionnaire a diagnosis?
No. Our online questionnaire is based on the WHO Adult ADHD Self-Report Scale (ASRS v1.1) screener. It is a screening indicator only and cannot diagnose ADHD. A formal diagnosis requires a full clinical assessment.
