    I’m not sure about the requirements that NHS has but a potentially cheaper way of doing it is having a psychologist run a few tests out of the DSM 5 and doing a report about it. Once you’re in the door with funding you can use that for a full specialist diagnosis instead.

    Again, not sure if that’ll work with NHS and if it will it’ll take some research on their behalf to make it happen but that’s how I got around the same requirements for our local system without paying though the arse for a specialist.
