People are now waiting long periods for an ADHD assessment

Its estimated that 10 percent of people in Ireland have access to ADHD treatment. But those numbers don’t reflect the current demand.

As it is ADHD Awareness Month, two people who are here to shine a light on all of this and more are Ethan Lloyd, a young person with ADHD and Dr Michelle Hill, consultant psychiatrist.
